Leaving on a Jet Plane

It's hard to believe we are leaving TODAY!  Our flight leaves at 4:40pm...and there have already been so many answers to prayer!  We found out we can each take two checked bags for free (I was packing with the mentality we'd each get one), AND we get to move right into our apartments when we get there (we were told we couldn't move in until Jan 2nd)!  It is really starting to sink in that we are leaving...and it's been hard to say goodbye.  Yesterday I mentioned to Lily how we are leaving "tomorrow" for South Africa and she cried.  We are going to the unknown for her (and all of us), and that is a little scary.  But God is with us and so are your prayers.  Thank you!  It is so comforting to know our friends and family are praying!  I wanted to give you our schedule for the next few days.  We'll post again as soon as we have internet access.
December 28th at 4:40pm~Fly from Denver to Frankfurt
December 29th~ Arrive in Frankfurt, check in to hotel and sleep/recover
December 30th~Go into Frankfurt and experience Germany, board the plane to South Africa at 1pm MST.
December 31st~ Arrive in Cape Town around 7am MST. 

Please pray that all of our luggage arrives on time and with all it's contents.  Pray also for us to depend on and react out of the power of the Holy Spirit in this time of stress and lack of sleep. :)

We're so thankful for you and will miss you!  Blessings to you in 2012!  Here we go!
