It's Official!

We are now proud owners of two airline tickets to Kenya, Africa!!!! God blessed us with a wonderful travel agent who helped us find a great deal (comparatively) on our travel itinerary and we couldn't be more excited!

We will leave on Saturday, July 10th and return home on Saturday, July 24th. There are two days of travel on each side so that puts in in Kenya for 12 days. Kenya time is 11 hours later than Seattle so we lose some time on the way there but it will be nice to gain it on the way home. We will travel through Washington DC and Brussels, Belgium on the way to Nairobi, Kenya. From Nairobi, we will catch a small plane to Kisumu where we will be starting our journey.

At this point, we have raised enough money to pay for our plane tickets plus help out one of our team members who didn't have quite enough...yet...!

We still need to raise about $1000 to reach our goal and we believe, without question, that we will. We have been humbled beyond words at some of the checks we have received in the mail. We knew we had a really big financial goal to reach, and to be within $1000 of reaching it, is all God. Thank you to those of you who have been led to give, we are so grateful.

Our next objectives are to get travel insurance purchased, and to get our vaccinations taken care of. At our next meeting, on April 1st, we will continue our discussion of our itinerary in Kenya and what we would like to bring with us to bless the teachers and kids of the schools we will visit.

Thank you for your continued prayers. Please pray for all of our team...Larry, Melanie, Amy, Rachael, Kyle, Chante', Ericka, Keven and Alicia... That our hearts would continue to be readied and that we would be led... Pray for us as we plan our time in Kenya. We want to be where and do what the Lord wants us to. We want to see the people we need to see and help those we need to help.

Thanks again for all of your love and support!

Keven & Alicia
