Hello everybody!
So after staying up all night we arrived at the Edmonton airport at 4am. The line moved quickly until we got our tickets and started going through customs and security! Yikes! We were only allowed one tiny carry on bag, TINY! Consisting of almost NOTHING. We stuffed our pockets with the things we wanted to keep and went through customs, and then through security, where we each got a very personal check...VERY personal. But in the end they decided we were safe and we got on our tiny plane just in time. It was a very stressful, very sleepy morning. But now we are in Seattle where it is beautiful and rainy and there is no snow. One step closer to Kenya.
Our flight is currently on time, and we have a few hours to kill in the airport. So we found an internet kiosk, so we could talk to you.
We miss you all dearly.
Keep praying for us, for safety and rest and health! And that we'll learn to trust God because he's here right beside us, at this internet booth, and he wants us to go to Kenya.
We'll keep you all updated.
From Dieta, Melissa, and Sara.

The old guy couldn't sleep so decided to check on everyone. You traveled in good company. Bishop Ron Mayan was behind you in the security line. Thanks for being troopers through was was indeed a tough and anxious security screening. We are praying as you go and will do so ever day. Gloria will take good care of you. Blessings!

Hi - thanks for touching base! We wondered how the security thing would go-looked intense from the very little we could see. Glad they figured out what we all know -- you're great! Thinking of you now somewhere between Amsterdam and Nairobi. Hugs and Prayers,

Thanks for letting us know you are alright SO FAR! Hope you can get a bit of sleep on the trip and that you will have a warmer welcome in Kenya (at least warm will be part of it)
ReplyDeleteBlessings to all three and we are praying
