Well, this is the day before our BIG day! We are so excited! The Lord has been so very gracious, using people to bless us! At church yesterday, we received $100! Praise the Lord! Then, we had youth revival, where Jared got to share his calling to the mission field and how he knew that God was leading him to serve on the mission field somewhere this summer.
He also shared what he will be doing while he is there and specific prayer requests for while we are there. It was such a blessing to hear him speak to his peers and be confident in what he was saying and confident that the Lord has called him to do this! It thrilled our hearts to see that his desire is to serve the Lord and cultivate a relationship with the Zambians.
After he finished sharing, Kevin had us come to the front and the youth laid hands on us and prayed for us! What an awesome blessing.... we have the "cream of the crop" youth!! Their prayers were precious and from the heart! What an overwhelming joy that came over me to know that we are a part of such a great group of kids! They prayed and we cried! What a glorious time! Thank you, Kevin for sharing your kids with us! You do a great job!
Today, we are finishing house work, packing, and last minute instructions for Scott and Justin. Then we will be heading out tomorrow morning for Atlanta. Our plane leaves at 9:15 pm and we will be flying to London (9 hours) then we have a 10 hour layover and leave for Zambia at 7 am and flying for 10 hours then boarding a bus for a little bit, then getting in a car and driving 7 hours to Luansha. Were we will be staying for most of our trip.
Thank you for your continued prayers, we will keep you posted as we are able.
Love you all, Susie and Jared
