After a year of preparation, it is hard to believe that we are really only two weeks away from take off. These last two weeks are full of last minute preparations - getting donations to take to Korah to use and give as gifts; making sure we have what we need because running to WalMart in Addis won't be an option; learning a few key phrases in their language to be able to say "Hello", "What is your name?", and "Where is the bathroom?".
One of the main things that is in the forefront of our minds, however is our team unity. We know that there is an enemy who will seek to tear our team apart and lessen our effectiveness in service. We also know that our God is bigger and when we stay united in the purpose of serving and loving like Jesus, we will not be overcome. Please join us in prayer for our team unity and good relationship building between the team members.

"Therefore if there is any encouragement in Christ, if there is any consolation of love, if there is any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and compassion, make my joy complete by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in spirit, intent on one purpose. Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves"
Philippians 2:1-3
