Well, only one more sleep before we are off!! We are excited to say the least! Two weekends ago, Foothills Mennonite Church, who really started this project, held a commissioning service, inviting people to pray for us and with us. And this morning Menno Simons Christian School also had a commissioning time for us. Students from each class (grades 1 to 9) presented the friendship bracelets that they made, along with letters and pictures, for us to take and present to students at a primary school in Najile. 350 bracelets or more! Karen Braun, Vice Principal, had students from each class then surround us and pray for us. Each of us was given a beautiful piece of cloth that was wrapped around our shoulders as people prayed. It was very moving. The cloth, for me, represents the support, love, and prayers that we are being sent with from so many people, and I hope that we can share that same support, love and prayers with folks there!

So....Joseph and Najile....here we come!!!
