Crunch Time

Now that we are finished with our local VBS it is time to put it all together, packing it up, and heading out in just a few weeks. The support we have received from our home Church, Friends, Family and even complete strangers is overwhelming, not only financially but in prayer as well. It is a great thing God already has a plan for each of us and this trip. We have definitely encountered the enemy every step of the way, but it is just a reminder to us that He has something amazing planned.
Please continue praying for us as we count down our final 2 weeks and put the finishing touches on our trip.

Sue Here... It's less than 24 hours before our team meet at the Charlotte/Douglas Airport to take a "really" long commute to bring the love of Christ to the children of West Africa. I am feeling overwhelmed, humbled, grateful and thankful with the outpouring of support that we have received from you all. I am awed at God's provision. God has provided everything we needed and have asked for.

We are packed and ready to embark on our trip. Please pray for the hearts of the children and adults of Cameroon to be stirred. We want this week to be lot's of fun for the children, and for it to be productive in the way of planting seeds and encouraging the children to desire that relationship to Jesus. We might even be blessed to see some little hearts changed, moved and little souls to be saved. I have been so amazed at God's faithfulness and provisions so far. In my head, I keep hearing the song "Great is the Faithfulness" over and over in my head (and I'm not a hymn-girl). This song plays over and over in my head every day!

We are still asking for your prayers for the Jackson family, for safe travel and health, for the children and for every detail to work out in a way that will Glorify God. Thank you all for your support! It has meant the world to us... and it will make a difference in the life of a child (hopefully everyone we come in contact with over this next week). Thank you!!!
