Here we are again in just 23 days our trip to Uganda will begin. Many believe that is the beginning of our journey the minute we step onto the plane... But is it??? Our journey actually begins the minute we step off the plane here in Wichita at the end of last years trip. Many of us are already planning the next years excursion in our hearts and minds. We have so much to do long before we hit the road. We have numerous team meetings welcoming new comers to the and preparing our hearts for what God has planned. We become familiar with our new teams and build bonds that will last a life time. We study the cultures of where we plan to go and focus on the tasks that lay ahead of us. We have to plan fund raisers to aide in the costs associated with the trip. The church is always so supportive of the missions team in this regard. Even though there are only a few actually going we take the hearts of our church as a whole with us. We have had great successes thus far raising funds. Bowl-a-thon did great Gospel music night was inspiring. Easter breakfast was delicious. And the dinner auction rocked. Wow what an honor to be a part of this great adventure. Team 1 leaves in just 23 days. We have a few things left to do like getting all if the areas of ministry ready for all the lives we will touch over there. We need to pack ourselves and all of the 16 to 20 extra totes and bags we take with us. As the days draw closer we will continue to update our progress. We live you all and keep us all in your prayers for good health and clear minds as we get closer to our departure and ultimate adventure for God.
