Hello from Lakeland, Flordia

Hello!!!! :)

There isn't much to update... still in FL. :) The plan is to leave July 8th... that was the soonest flight available for all 11-12 of us! Here is picture of some of us... Enjoy! Blessings and love to you all from Florida!

The Excitement Continues...

Many of you have already heard that some unexpected events have taken place, which means a slight change in plans, it's surely been an opportunity to have faith and to be flexible... :)


We have been unable to get ahold of the other missionary couple in Burundi (who I was hoping to get to stay with so I could still leave), but we've heard from one of their parents saying they are up country, and that is a praise because it means it is safe to travel (even amidst the grenade blasts due to the elections). Most people stay in the city if it is not safe to travel. So PTL!!! This is great news! :)  


Since the Johnson's are still in the USA (Florida) and we can't get ahold of the other couple, the plan now, after much brainstorming and praying, is that I will fly out to Florida on Sunday. Melli's dad is working on trying to get me a flight out on Southwest. And then from there we will all fly together to Burundi.  


We have tentative flights scheduled to leave back to Burundi on July 8, but we are trying to get sooner flights, provided the renewed passports arrive.  


Please pray that: 
I get a southwest flight out to Florida on Sunday 
The renewed passports arrive quickly/soon 
We can get sooner flights out of Miami, Florida, all together on the same plane, if possible  


Thank you for your interest & prayers!
