2010 Arrives!

It has arrived! The new year and we are now counting the days to departure. Hope you have a basket full of goodies to put in a suitcase soon for the trip. Weigh it all and spend some time debating what really needs to make the trip across the ocean.

Don't forget your Bible! And take note of the new carry-on policies out of Frankfurt. What we are reading says one carry-on bag out of Frankfurt to anywhere in Africa. Make sure everything you bring can fit into that one bag.

I hope we can all meet in the Chicago International Terminal Food Court before we go through security for the Lufthansa flight. If all goes according to plan, the AZ folks should get into O'hare about noon. As you arrive, head on over to the spot just before security. We should be able to meet and greet! Our flight is scheduled out at 3:40 pm. We are supposed to have 3 hours in Frankfurt.

There have been some communication questions. Sometimes it helps if you have someone at home send out your emails to a list. If there is trouble getting an internet connection, we can send a quick note to one person who will spread the word. I hope you all have at least 10 people committed to pray for you while you are gone. We can put someone on sight in charge of gathering prayer requests to send out. Don't we have an IT person on the team? :)
