Josh and I left Texas on Friday and drove to Indianapolis where we were able to spend the evening with my sister and her family. We then continued on to PA and stopped in Ohio along the way to see Josh's family. (Yes this was longer then driving straight to PA); however, it enabled us to see other members of our family and as we all know...traveling more hours not so much fun, but time spent with family "priceless". We arrived at my parents house on Saturday night and quickly began preparing for Sunday morning worship which my parents and I were leading!
Josh has spent the past couple of days working diligently on finishing up his notes for the classes he will be teaching. I have also worked on what I will be doing in the math workshops. I was also able to drive to New Jersey on Tuesday to see some friends and pick up some more supplies for our trip. It was great to be able to see some friends I have not visited with for a while.
Thursday we are headed to Maryland to spend some time with my brother and his family and then Monday the 2oth in the evening we leave the country.
Praises - We have had safe travels!!!
My mother has been working on getting a science kit to take over which has many hands on activities and will really help to increase their science instruction. She just found out yesterday that the company is going to give her this rather expensive kit for free!!!
Please continue praying as we have more to get ready i.e.finishing packing suitcases...which is quite a challenge with the weight limit and all the supplies we are taking over! although we just found out we are allowed 3 suitcases per person! This means 12 suitcases for us. We can take more supplies that we originally thought would be left behind. Also pray as we continue to prepare for what we will be teaching and make copies of the materials we will need. And then of course as we leave please pray for safe travels and sane travelers :)
Thanks for all your prayers already! Things are really coming together great and we are so excited for the opportunity that awaits us :)
