After over a year of planning, church luncheons, and about a bazillian e-mails, our mission trip to the Dominican Republic officially begins tomorrow. We had our final team meeting last night. It was a night for prayer and for going over some last minute details. We also had to parcel out the medication that we'll be taking (wish I had taken a picture).
If you want specific things to pray for, I'd like to ask you to pray that
- the medication we are taking, some of which is prescription, would pass through customs w/o any problems;
- our team members would remain healthy;
- the people we come into contact with will be touched, physically and spiritually, by the ministry;
- God would watch over our loved ones while we are gone.
One of the best things about short term mission work is that there is often a strong bond that develops among the team members, and one that lasts long after the trip is over. I'm already seeing this happen with us. If you've ever experienced this, you know how sweet it is. We have a great team assembled; I know it'll be a great trip.
