Purchased tickets

YAHOO!  

Well, I needed to share with all of you that I just purchased my airline tickets to leave for Madagascar!  (insert a dance of rejoicing here)

Each day this is becoming more and more real!  I am so very excited to see what the Lord will do in the coming chapters of life and ministry overseas and in and through me. So much to do and so little time left.  Thanks to each one of you that are there and traveling this journey with me.  You are such a source of strength and moreover iron sharpening iron.  What great biblical examples you all are to me.  

I will be departing for Madagascar Wednesday, July 29th from LAX an evening flight and arriving in Madagascar on Friday, July 31, 2009 around 2 pm in the afternoon. 

I did mention to a girlfriend that I had wanted to kiss the ground once I arrived but she soon reminded me that people in Madagascar, including the animals deficate anywhere and that kissing the ground would be ill advised.  

I am rejoicing just the same and once again thank each and everyone of you for your part in this journey!   I could not do it without GOD first and you as a strong second in support, prayer and financially, most of all encouragement in perserverance.   

The Lords mighty blessings on all of you! 

Love and hugs,
