  4. Praise the Lord!!! I am so happy you all have arrived safely. Monica Nichols is my stepdaughter (I have had the pleasure and of having her in our family for over 27 years). Monica is a delight and a blessing. Her Dad and I are so very proud of her. Keep us posted and all of you are in my prayers every day. God is awesome and continues to move in mystereous ways.

  5. God is so Awesome!!!! What an amazing group of people we have over there on this mission! God has arranged these specific people at this specific time for this specific mission and there will be wonderful things happening over there! They have literally hundreds, possibly thousands, of people praying for them. I can’t wait to see how this unfolds. God Bless them all!

  6. Praise the Lord, indeed!! I’m glad that I’m not the only one who spent lots of time tracking the flights yesterday and today! I’ve also been checking up on the weather forecasts for the next 10 days, and it looks like they should be having much cooler temps than I expected – ranging from 61 to 81 degrees! I’m anxious to hear how the flights and long layovers went, and what the trip from Entebbe to Busia was like. May you all get some much needed peaceful horizontal sleep after sitting up so long, and may the Lord refresh and energize you to begin the incredible work He has planned for you to do for Him!! Bethany, we love you so much and are excited to see what God does through you, His yielded vessel!!
