We have gathered and trained together for many months now. Tomorrow we will leave MVC and head to Denver where we will stay overnight then fly out early on Saturday morning.
Throughout the trip students will be sharing their experiences and thoughts on the blog so make sure you check back regularly. Personally, I have enjoyed getting to know each of them better and see the gifts God has given them. We have read, prayed, discussed, and dreamt about this time and now it is here. I know God has us going to New Jersey for a reason and am excited to see what He does through us as we serve him by loving others.
This blog is a way for us to communicate with our friends, family, and those who are supporting in prayer. The great thing about blogs is they are a two way street. When we leave a post you are free to comment and leave your thoughts. I encourage you to leave thoughts, prayers, and encouragement for the team which we will communicate to them each evening in our family time together. And you can start right now! When you finish reading this post a prayer you have for a team member or the team a whole. Then, after dinner tomorrow night we will share those prayers with them.
Thank you for supporting us and we look forward to sharing our experiences with you throughout the journey.
