Leaving on Thursday!

Friends,

Sorry for the long silence on the blog! I've had several of you this week ask me when there will be a new post, so here it is!

This is the big week. I think I speak for all three of us when I say I've been feeling a jittery combination of nervousness, excitement, inadequacy, fear, faith, hope, and anticipation. Isn't it great that one of the things people who go to the mission field can know for SURE is that He is with us (Matthew 28:19-20)?

So here's the schedule. We fly out from the States on Thursday of this week. Tommy and I will meet up first in Chicago (I'll be coming from Little Rock, he from Evansville). Then we'll meet Charlie in New York and all three fly together to Belgium where we'll meet Wilfred and Angelica Fon. Then it's on to Cameroon! Once we land in the capital city of Yaounde, we'll stay in a "rest house" (kind of sounds like something out of a spy movie, doesn't it?) for a night, then take an all-day bus trip to Ndu and CBTS!

Please keep us in your prayers this week especially. We'll post some specific requests in the next few hours.

What an encouragement you all are to us. We appreciate so much the partnership we share in the Gospel of Jesus who was crucified and raised from the dead for sinners!

Wesley, for the team

Thanks for the update, Wes. Kelly and I are excited for all that is in store for the 3 of you this year. Hopefully we will talk to you this week.

Hmmm...no sarcasm in that comment. Can we really believe that that was the real Erin Capps?

So I hear that "all its goodness" includes some hail damage. Tsk, tsk. Guess it just goes to show even the perfect "iron range" town with the best high school hockey in the world isn't quite perfect. ;)
Well, Mrs. Capps, thanks for the encouragement and prayers. And yes, let's talk before we leave. I'm excited for you guys too and your upcoming move. All the best to you at GCTS!
your friend,

Can't you hear her sarcastically saying that though?

Oh Tommy, you of little faith.

Who is Erin Capps really?

And Wes, I do appreciate your concern for my LeSabre, but you gotta get your Minnesota geography straight. We are NOT the Iron Range. Maybe the Star of the North is more accurate.

Just for the record, my last comment wasn't supposed to be from "anonymous" (I'm not sure what happened with that). I originally wrote it as "Bona Fide Roseau Visitor." Okay. Just had to put that out there. (And I'm glad you're LeSabre will be alright. Hope the bike fared just as well.)
