We're Leaving on a Jet Plane

Hello everyone! Welcome to our first 2009 trip post!
This Saturday, July 18, 2009, 18 people from Kingsway Church will depart from Philadelphia International Airport at 6:10am (yep, we are leaving that early) to begin our missions week in El Salvador. About (9) of us have been there before; the other (9) are all first-timers. We are all excited, anxious, expectant, and a host of other feelings.
Thanks so much to our Kingsway family (and many others) who helped us make this trip. We couldn't have raised over $24,000 to go without your faithful and generous support. We hope that you enjoy reading about our adventures over the next week. We are believing God to make a difference in our own lives, even as we strive to make a difference in the lives of others. Pray with us that families will be blessed as we distribute food, children will come to know Jesus as we minister in neighborhoods and schools, and many will experience the compassion of Christ as two members of our team serve in the medical clinic.
My next post will be from El Salvador!
Blessings on you,
Pastor Arlena :)
