Trip Schedule

Just 3 days now...tomorrow afternoon the team is getting together for a packing party to collect all the gifts, donations, and materials and somehow make them all - in addition to our clothing and personal items - fit into 10 suitcases!

In the meantime, several people have asked to know what we're doing over there and how they can pray for us. So for all our awesome prayer warriors, here are our general plans. We are so grateful for your prayers as they go with us along every step of this journey.

May 28-29: travel to Kenya, arriving in Nairobi the evening of the 29th.

May 30-June 4: in Nairobi. We'll be putting on a kids program at the Centre, and training/discipleship conferences for pastors and church members. In addition, we'll be holding a crusade in a slum named Kariobangi on June 2-3, and visiting and ministering to people in Korogocho door-to-door. We are praying hard for open hearts and minds at all of these events, and for God to speak through us all.

June 5: travel to the Village area in western Kenya.

June 6-11: in the Village. We'll be doing similar discipleship work with the kids, pastors, and church members, as well as evangelism. We will also have a chance to dedicate the 3 existing and in-progress Hydration2Others wells, and tell people what H2O is all about and why so many Christians in the US have felt called to help provide clean water for people a continent away. Pray that God's love and truth would find its way into hundreds of Kenyans' hearts through all of these ministries!

June 12: return to Nairobi.

June 13: say goodbye and depart Kenya.

June 14: arrive in Albuquerque.

That's the very short version of what we're doing. We'll share a lot more as we go along and, of course, God's plans are much better than ours - the truly exciting part of this blog will be sharing about those as He reveals them to us one step at a time. In the meantime, your prayers for the team as we make final preparations and travel are deeply appreciated, as well as prayer for peace for family members of the team as they say goodbye for a couple of weeks.

Blessings to you all!
