4 days................

Here is where I'll try my first blog about Mozambique.

For more information you can always check out our friend's blog @ http://www.rickandheather.blogspot.com/

We will spend one month with this wonderful little family.  Please keep us all in your prayers.

Looks like our flights are now confirmed, minus a few issues with the reservation code, but it should be good to go. Mike and I have different codes for SOME of the flights so we hope this doesn't cause any problems and looks weird/confusing at the airport. Your prayers are appreciated!

This trip will be long, especially with Raphael :) We ask that you pray for safety, easy border crossing and a happy baby. May Mike and I keep our attitude positive towards each other as that can be hard to do when traveling like this. May we be a blessing to those around us as we get to talk to people at the airport, in the plane and tell them about our trip.

We praise the Lord about the finances that came in so far, we are indeed so bless!

We ask you to pray that our health will be good, and that we will find it in us to praise the Lord in sickness too!

We ask you to pray that our Lord would see fit to use us in whatever way and that we would be found willing to be used, even when it's not comfortable!

Pray that our bodies adjust to the hot weather and that we could manage to get some sleep :D

So we leave Monday for Mozambique and I have mixed feelings about it.  People are asking: Are you nervous, scarred, excited, .......  I'd say a healthy mixture of it all :D  

My suitcases look like like a Ziploc promotion campaign, but that's the way I roll.

Prayers would be appreciated for patience with our beautiful son.  He has a way to get "under my skin" with his perpetual stubbornness: Not sleeping through the night being the main one!  Naps are a battle and that is what gets me "worried" on this trip.  So please pray that if nothing else, I'll have loads of extra patience :)  

Praise God for the 2 amazing friends who stopped by this morning to bring me gifts of encouragement, the Lord is sustaining me and bringing me comfort.  

Thanks for reading!
