Prayer Requests and Itinerary

Prayer requests for today:
1. Final details coming together. Recently, we've had a change of plans which required more money, but God, in His omniscience, provided over and above what we needed and we are covered. Praise the Lord!
2. Packing-we have a lot of stuff we are taking for the orphanage and for the missionaries and we want to get it all in the least amount of luggage possible.
3. Security at the airport- leaving on July 4 adds time to our security traffic. Pray that things go quickly and without snags.
4. JFK transfer- we have a short amount of time to get from one plane to another so pray that we get left on time from Pittsburgh and are able to make a smooth switch.
5. Clarity of thought- Pray that Paul is able to think through anything else we might need to do/pack/cover so that everything goes as planned and that he gets 16 people to the airport and on a plane to a foreign country! It's been a lot of work and there are a lot of things going through his mind.


Here is our "tentative" schedule for our week of DR. As missionaries, we are first and foremost asked to be flexible. It'll be interesting to report how well we followed this!

Itinerary:

Sunday: travel (leave church at 2:00pm)
Monday: Orphanage in Haiti
Tuesday: get any last minute details together for VBS
Wednesday - Friday:
Morning: prep for VBS
Afternoon: VBS
Evening: free time / sightseeing
Saturday: Spending time with John Webb's Youth group/Sports day
Sunday: church stuff
Monday: return home (arrive at church around 11:30am)

Our Flight plan:

Flight Info: JetBlue

Outbound (Sunday, July 4, 2010)
05:30 PM to 07:15 PM (PIT to JFK)
