Less than 24 hours to countdown!

I can scarcely believe how fast time has flown by over the past few weeks and yet how slow it has seemed to go!! It is now less than 24 hours until I take off and I am beyond excited. The Lord has made way through brimstone and fire for this trip to happen in the past few weeks. For those of you who don't know, my trip has changed leaders and locations of the place we are staying all in about the past week so there have been many new challenges in packing, plans and preparation for the group as a whole. My team is leaving Kentucky this afternoon at five to drive to Nashville where they are spending the night to catch the first flight to Miami in the morning. I leave my house at 5:30 a.m. tomorrow for my flight which leaves at 8 and arrives in Miami at 10:25. My team leader is supposed to be at my gate to pick me up as soon as I step off the plane then we will travel on to El Salvador together. I cannot believe it is finally so close!! I know the Lord has amazing plans for everyone on this trip this year. A few prayer points that I would like to put out there are:
  • No flight delays!! that all the flights would be on time due to short connections in Miami which is a very stressful airport to navigate with a team of 18.
  • Luggage- the team is carrying two suitcases a piece full of supplies for ministry time and personal belongings pray that ALL of the luggage would get to ES safely at the same time as us so that no one is without the stuff we need for ministering and taking care of ourselves.
  • Health- Pray for the Lord's covering over the whole team as we minister in the rural areas and orphanages
  • Safety- The new government took over less than a week ago so pray that the Lord would guide us around any sticky situations that we aren't supposed to be in.
I want to thank all of you for your prayers over this next week. I can't tell you how much it means to me and my team!! I will update as much as possible with pictures and stories of all the awesome stuff that the Lord does through us on our trip. God bless you all!!
Much Love,
Hannah

p.s. The next time I update I'll be in El Salvador!!!!!! It's so exciting!!!!!!!!!
