Travel

Tomorrow is the 28th, a day that's been on our calendars for a while now as the day our team flies out of Dulles on our first flight (of 3) that will end up with us all in Melbourne, Australia on the 30th (we pass over the international dateline...how cool is that?!).

Please be praying that our flights go well and without a hitch. Traveling so far over multiple flights can be so stressful as soon as delays begin and such. Please pray that our day of traveling is uneventful and that we will bond over the hours and the miles so we can enter our first day of summer project excited to serve God as a team!

Once we arrive, we'll have some time to get accustomed to the new time zone, culture, and city. But barely 48 hours after arriving, we will get on a bus with a ton of the Aussie students from across the Victoria region to go to their version of the "winter conference," which is called Mid Year Conference there. Oh, and fun facts: the ministry there is called Student Life instead of Cru and the staff are called Missionaries, not staff.

Please pray that our adjustments and travel go well over those first few days. Also, please pray that the americans and australians strike up a bond quickly. The more we collaborate across cultures, the better we can reach the campuses!

Okay, see you on the other side! Off to Oz!!
