Booked!

Flights are booked! We are thanking God for some decent prices and good scheduling to boot!

Sarah and I will be flying out of Toronto on the 5th of November (around 6:30pm) and arriving in Chennai just after midnight on the 7th -- a mere 2 hours before the rest of our team will arrive!

Our next team get together is in a couple of weeks. We're looking forward to re-connecting especially now that pretty much everyone else has also booked their flights so our team is more or less finalized!


On a personal note, please continue to pray for me as I have just under a week left to wrap up my MRP and am feeling pretty overwhelmed by the process. Specifically, I'd appreciate your prayers for motivation and for self-discipline and/or focus!

On a happier note, I've been blessed with THREE unsolicited part-time-flexible-hours-work-from-home job offers in the last couple of weeks. I was a bit anxious about finding work in the fall given the uncertainty of where I'll be in January (Ontario or British Columbia) as well as the time that I'll be needing to book off for this trip in November but I'm feeling pretty confident that God's got my back on this one!

Booking flights!

It's funny how something as simple as booking flights can be both exciting and nerve-wracking!

We're booking our flights this week and the process of finalizing the dates changes things -- it makes things more real. We really are going to India in November!

We are thanking God as he continues to provide financially! We are also grateful for the abundance of personal and prayer support from close friends and family.

I'm still wrapping up my MRP, so in addition to the excitement of finalizing flight details, I'm also feeling both anxious and relived about the final few days of writing. Please pray for continued motivation, clarity of mind as I read and write, and for general sanity as I move closer to the light at the end of this tunnel!

With regard to India, please be praying this week for the children in the orphanage that is run by Harvest India. We are asking that God would reveal himself to these kids in some very tangible ways and that as a result, they would know that they are deeply loved and cared for.
