Travelling - Day One

The Journey has begun!



Dad and I left Toronto last night at 11:30 and arrived in London Heathrow at 11:40 local time.




My Uncle Peter and Aunt Catherine picked us up and took us to a barbecue for the afternoon. It was great to see them again and incredibly generous of them to drive the two hours to the airport to pick us up, two hours back to the barbecue (near their home), two hours back to the airport, and then their drive home.


We are currently waiting for our flight to Doha, Qatar. We leave London tonight at 9:30 and arrive in Doha tomorrow at approximately 6:30. Our flight to Nairobi leaves Doha at 8:00 am. Please pray that connections are made without difficulty or delay.


We will stay overnight Monday in Nairobi and catch an early morning flight to Kisumu where we will be picked up and driven to Matangwe for our first day of work.


Travelling is exciting but long and tiring, too. Please pray for energy and a quick recovery from jetlag so that we can be effective in our roles in Matangwe.


Thank you for your support and prayers. We truly could not do this without you!
