Leaving on a Jet Plane

In less than 24 hours, the I:10 Team (that's India 2010 for all you non-hipsters - though we're open to suggestions for a better "name" ) will be departing BWI (9:05 p.m.) for a 7-hour flight to London Heathrow(arriving 9:25 a.m.,Tuesday, June 15th) and picking up a 10-hour connection flight into Chennai (arriving 4:00 a.m., Wednesday, June 16th).  At this point, we're all checked in, our seats booked and we will be meeting at 6 p.m. tomorrow (the 14th).

We will do our best each day of the trip to update this blog with a recap of the day's events and include a look forward into the next day's mission events.  We will also be including specific prayer requests and we ask that you be in prayer with us and for us as we serve in Jesus' Name.  Check back daily for the most recent updates and please feel free to respond and add your comments!

On behalf of the whole I:10 Team (still waiting for that awesome name), thank you so much for your prayer support.  We cannot do this without you and you have encouraged  us so much already with your promises for prayer.  Please keep them because we certainly need them.

Today's prayer requests:
 1.  Please pray for safety as we travel
 2.  Please pray (BOLDLY) that we will make it through customs without any problems as we are carrying over many evangelistic resources.
 3.  Please pray for our families as we say "Adios" for two weeks
 4.  Please pray for the Holy Spirit to not only protect us as we travel, but open our eyes to those we come in contact with before we even reach India who need to hear about the Love of Christ.
 5.  As we begin these weeks of mission, let's join together to pray that God just shows off in a way that we cannot even begin to expect.

Thank you, again, for your support and for journeying with us.

-Jeff (or, J-I:10.  Come on, we REALLY need another name for the team)

  2. Praying that God keeps you all under His Wings as you travel, and uses each of you in a way you've never imagined.
