Tomorrow afternoon, I head to Bowling Green with seven middle schoolers and another adult for City Sights, City Lights. That’s our annual 48 hour local middle school mission experience. We’ll be staying at The Presbyterian Church of Bowling Green.
So pray for Elle, Hannah, Sarah, B.J., Aimee, Ben and David. Pray especially for Ginny and I!
I’m taking my computer, but I’m not sure that they’ll have internet access for me.
See, it was just a failure to communicate!
I’m not in charge of this crazy trip–God’s in charge of this crazy trip. So, that’s a relief! That kinda makes a difference. Thanks to my dear, praying friends and loved ones!
Actually, the last minute details are falling into place nicely with only one or two glitches possible at this point. Continue to pray for the entire mission team of 31 high school students and adults!
I wish I could keep you posted on this trip like I have on past trips, but it’s not possible. So I’ll write a few entries and share some pictures when I get back.
Have a great week!
Gentle readers, I may not survive the next few days of last minute trip planning.
It’s only Sunday and the phone rings off the hook, people won’t mail or bring me their essential documents, youthworks has a list of things I need to do that’s about 20 pages long, no one likes the rules, the packing list, the dress code (none of which are mine), and I have one girl who still lacks her birth certificate. I’m not 100 per cent over whatever I had last week, we still don’t have a place to stay next Friday night in Toronto, and I’m worrying way too much about the border crossing.
Other things I’m worrying about: The vehicles, their drivers, whether or not someone will be mugged, whether or not it’s okay for kids to go in groups without an adult at the mall, the kids’ behavior, whether or not all of the luggage will fit, whether or not I’ll be good at driving in Toronto…also, I had a dream that one of the churches that is going–and volunteered their 15 passenger bus–traded their mini-bus in for a charter bus. Charter buses are not allowed. So now I’m having irrational worries, too.
why, Why, WHY did I say I would plan this trip?
Okay, I know why.
Pray anyway.
