::In Two Short Days We Leave::

Dear friends,

Thank you so much for visiting our 2009 Ukraine Orphan Care Trip blog. We hope to keep this blog updated daily with the happenings of our orphan care trip!

In just two short days, our team of 12 will head to Ukraine! We can't wait! Tonight (Wed.) we drop off the majority of our luggage to be packed into a trailer, go over last minute details, and pray together. On Friday, we meet at 5:45am, then head to BWI to fly (at 10:15am) to JFK, then to Kiev at 4:15pm.

Please be praying for our team as we prepare to leave. Many of us leave spouses, parents, family, and friends behind for 10 days. Pray that God would move in power, strengthening those we leave. Also, be praying that God would cover and protect us from spiritual warfare as we prepare to leave and during the trip. Finally, be praying for the many orphans we are privileged to serve and love for 10 days - may God use us mightily to show these precious ones how much their Heavenly Father loves them.

Thanks so much for reading and stay tuned for more updates!
