Leaving on a Jet Plane


This time tomorrow I'll be flying over the Atlantic. And I'm stoked.

In case you hadn't seen my tweets or Facebook updates, I'm leaving with a group from our church to work with church planters in Kiev, Ukraine. We are going to be working in English as Second Language classes in public schools and working with a few local churches doing the same thing. We also have a group working with a soccer club and a group working with kiddos in an after school program.

I'll be traveling with several students from our small group at church and with our small group leaders, whom we love dearly. I'll also be meeting up with my mentor who is teaching a class at a seminary in Ukraine for a couple of weeks.

If you happen to think of Reagan or me in the next ten days say a prayer for both of us. She'll be stateside while I'm gone but she is going to be crashing with friends and such while I'm gone.

I'm going to be working directly with the churches and I'm designated as a "roamer" too so some of my specifics aren't really ironed out. If you've been on a mission trip you totally understand this. (Flexy cookies anyone?)

Pray that we are faithful to the gospel given to us and that God is glorified.

Blessings
