Meeting Time

One week from today we should be boarding our plane heading toward Ecuador. We are all very excited for this trip, and working out the last minute details. We have been meeting weekly for the past 6 weeks. As we have met we have spent a large amount of time in prayer as that is the best way we can prepare ourselves and those we will be in contact with. We have also spent some time preparing for the VBS we will be teaching, singing songs in spanish, and playing some games. Everyone is chipping in to make sure this trip is a success. Here are a couple of pictures of us in our meetings.







Please pray with us as we prepare this last week. We are meeting on Tuesday afternoon as well as this Saturday. We have also received our schedule as well for this trip, so here is just a little idea of what our time will be spent doing.

Sunday March 10th 11:59pm - Depart from Anchorage
Monday - Traveling - Arrive in Quito around 9pm spend night in Quito at guest house
Tuesday - Travel to Cundas Conde arrive mid to late afternoon
Wed - Friday - Work on water project in the morning, Run VBS in the afternoon
Saturday - Travel back to Quito
Sunday - Spend the day at Rancho Alto Church working on projects there
Monday - tourist stuff around Quito
Tuesday - Travel back to Alaska

Thank you all for your support and prayers. We have received almost 120% of the funds that we needed for this trip. The extra is going towards VBS supplies, extra travel expenses, and a gift to the missionaries we will be working with.

My God is a mighty God of justice. You will stand before Him one day and be held to account for the harm you did to me when I was a child in your care.

For the record, I did not become a prostitute in NYC, which is what you told me was all I was good for. Instead I got a degree and became an Army Officer, like my father, and married a brilliant man who just retired as a full bird Colonel in the Army and is now an SES in DC.

You always told me how stupid I was. Funny, a man with a PhD in physics and an IQ of 170 thought I was smart enough to marry. And an IQ of 140, which is what I tested at, isn't bad, either.

I wonder what harm you are doing now to the children currently in your clutches?
