The time has come- we are hopping over the Atlantic to start our 3 month stint in Africa where we will be working with ministries in Eswatini, Losotho and South Africa. We are starting our trek today and could use your prayers as we have an intense set of travel days ahead of us. Here’s what it looks like: 

 

– Sept 1, 12:00 p.m. – check out of Airbnb and begin 24hr overnight bus travel to Lima 

– Sept 2, 2:00 p.m. ish – arrive to the Lima airport for overnight stay

– Sept 3, 2:30 a.m. – flight check in and bag check

– Sept 3, 6:25 a.m. – Volaris flight to Cancun (5 hr 33 min flight time)

As you can see, the next few days will be hectic, tiring, and long as we jump on over to Africa. PRAYERS WILL BE SO APPRECIATED!
