= A new voyage begins...
We are now counting down the next 14 hours before we board a plane to carry us across the "big pond" once again to Portugal. Where's my list??? We fly into London for a several hour layover then into Lisbon to be greeted by dear friends we are so excited to see once again! Did I check that off my list???
Today as I sat at a favorite place for fish and salad with my dear friend, J, I told her yes, I am excited, but always go through the pre-flying anxiety. Once I am at the airport, my overweight suitcase as been checked and I have to sit and wait to board the plane, I know I am committed and can somewhat begin to relax. Did I pack those tiny blue pills??? I will be good, R always talks me through it and holds my hand during the flight.
We will be in Portugal for two weeks. As I mentioned, we look forward with such gratefulness to spend time with O & M, our dear friends. We so look forward to seeing J & P! We had the privilege of hosting them here in our home 3 1/2 months ago for several days. What a good time we had! We already see the smiles of the dear friends in the churches we will visit and all the abraços e beijos (hugs and kisses) that will follow.
I cannot give you an agenda as the days will come and be planned as they happen. Each day is new and exciting! I will write (with pictures if I can remember how to attach them!?!?!) as often as I am able. Did I leave enough cat food for BT??? (Don't tell him we will be gone for two weeks, I told him we would be "right back"!) Hmmm, somehow all the details work out.
Pray with me for safety and especially for times to love and minister to those we spend time with in Portugal. Pray for God's leading in the direction He would have for the people there and that we be used as He wants.
Please come along on this new journey with me...
