TWO DAYS TO GO!

We have the visas, we have (almost) packed, we have met with the UK board of trustees and Jane and are reassured that we have their support and trust. As we said before it's an enormous task, but we know that God has directed us to this, so we trust in Him to give us everything we need. 
We have said goodbye to Will and the dog (who couldn't wait to get to Alison's house - the dog that is, not Will!), are saying goodbye to our wonderful church family tomorrow and we are now ready to go.

We leave on Monday morning and we will update you when arrive in Manila (and have slept and washed!).

Prayer points
  • Protection for the journey - 8 hours to Dubai, 2 hour stopover then 8 hours to Manila
  • That we are taking everything we need
  • That the arrangements (we think) made for being collected at the airport have worked
  • That we have a bed in the accommodation that (we think!) is arranged
  • For Will that he continues to enjoy his time at Sheffield and will be supported should the need arise
  • For the children and families on the rubbish dumps that the flood waters will subside and they will stay safe
  • For the families of the PCF sponsored children that were killed in a landslide following the recent typhoon
Psalm 40 v 5 'Lord my God, you have done many things - your wonderful works and Your plans for us; none can compare with You'
