Headin' Out!

Well, here we goooo!

We're off to the airport in about an hour to check in to our international Emirates flight. We'll have a lay-over in Dubai, and then hopefully arrive in Nairobi around 2PM Kenya time.

We had a really great first time together last night with staff and students. It's so great to look around and see all the students looking at each other, not knowing each other one bit and then to know that in seven short weeks they will be incredibly, unbelievably bound together.

We talked about a mix of cultural things that they would need to know in order to not make a horrible first impression. We played random get-to-know-you games and also spent time praying for one another in small groups. The general consensus is that most of us are coming very tired and overwhelmed from school/work/logistical preparations and not feeling very filled up with God. We pray to be filled to overflowing with God because it's the over-spill that splashes out on people and that's what Missions is at its core.

hmm. well I best pack up my last few things and head downstairs! Love you all, and I'll write once I get the chance to in Kenya!
