It's really more like 29 hours, but who's counting!!!!!!

This trip is so wildly crazy, overwhelming, and emotional.  It's also an amazing privilege. We are so honored that the Lord has led us down this road. We'd love to have you prayers over the next 10 days! Here are a few things you can pray for:

• logistics of travel (flights on time, luggage at right weight, no luggage lost, seats on planes, etc.)
• safety during travel
• physical health before and during travel
• physical health while in Ethiopia
• Clay and Avery at home with Kerry's mom
• our initial bonding with Grace
• and anything else the Lord leads you to pray for!!!
  

We cherish and rely on your prayers more than you know.
