ready, set, mission:United Kingdom

i'll finish packing today and spend time with my family--one more night of trying to sleep before the long travel day to the UK. we're all eager to meet with Pastor John of the Birkenhead Church of God and all the other brothers and sisters of the congregations there.

traveling with me will be Zach Langford, Andrew Scollard, Michele Murray, and Linsey Gates (all of whom went on the Mission Sophia trip) and rookie Kimberly Janeway.

we will be meeting with the people, pastors, and learning about the ministry highs and lows. we will seek to discover a particular need that we can bring a team back to serve in the future, hopefully next spring.

we're in for a lot of surprises, English accents and dialect, driving on the left rather than the right, and summer temperatures that are similar to our winter! we should be experiencing a 20-25 degree temperature difference, as well as a lot of rain! follow the weather below.

for updates on our trip, with pictures and more, go to our trip site

thank you all for all of your support and prayers -- continue to pray for our safety, wisdom, favor, and the encouragment we can bring to our brothers and sisters in the U.K.

Eugene is going to the UK with you. . . oh no. She is trouble.

Wishing you the best as you expand your ministries.
