Latvia Trip 2011: T Minus Twenty-One Hours

It's the last few hours before we leave the country, and we're running around Arlington cramming in last-minute shopping. In about an hour we'll meet up at Tate Springs and pack all the donated items from our church family into Kim's flamboyantly pink travel bags. Pink travel bags. Well, at least we won't lose 'em.

Please be in prayer for us as we hit the mission field. Pray that He would tune our hearts to His, and that those already there will be prepared by the Spirit to receive the good news of Jesus.

Jesus says, "Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men." We're holding to that promise. We're going to follow Him with every ounce of strength that Jesus gives us. Pray that we listen to His leadership. As with so many statements of Jesus, this promise convicts as well as soothes. If we're not fishing for men, then what else are we not doing?

Following Jesus.

We want to follow Jesus. In the words of Peter, "Where else can we go? You have the words of eternal life!" We want to fish for people. Please pray for us, that we would trust Jesus with every aspect of this trip!


Thank you for your prayers, monetary support, item donations, and warm encouragement. Your faithfulness has enabled us to go again this year.

Your representatives this year are:

Rick Autrey, Kim Ball, Cindy Dorgan, Tommy Dorgan, Nancy Gafford, Traci Hinshaw, Ramie Mason, Andrew Mason, Aaron McNabb, Suzie Miller, Lindsey Roderick, Hannah Sosebee, and Leslie Troyer

Look for more updates throughout the week!
