Indonesia for the next 10 days

After a day and a half in London, we traveled for the next 36 hours on three plane trips through Singapore and Jakarta on our way to Bandar Lampur (I spelled it right this time). In those 36 hours, Steve, Josh and Jodie only slept for about 3 hours and thankfully Becky was able to sleep much longer, but we were all exhausted. We only had one hiccup at the airport in Jakarta. Our luggage did not arrive with our flight because the layover in Singapore was 1 hour and the bags were not able to get to the next plane fast enough. However, they were on the next plane to Singapore and we got them before we left Jakarta to fly to Bandar Lampur. We also had a little trouble getting our boarding passes at the Jakarta airport because of the language barrier but it all worked out and we are here. Last night we got caught up on some much needed rest. Currently we are 12 hours ahead of you all in the states. It is Saturday morning and Becky and Jodie are printing their education workshops notes for the education conference that starts on Monday (Jodie will be teaching every day). And Josh and Steve will be preaching this Sunday at two different churches. In a couple hours we will all head over the Christian hospital for a tour (we are staying at the house of the director of the hospital). Please pray for education conference this next week. And the guys who will be preaching that we will effectively work with translators and the God’s Word will be an encouragement to the churches here.
