60 hours until we depart

Folks,

Thought it might be good to ensure we could post a blog from home before trying from Acre.

Hope we have made my last trip to Walmart to round out our essentials. Wanted to share that Bruce has already packed his luggage which immediately increased our stress level about being prepared.

Tonight we finalize what goes/stays. Since Joe is so "P-R-E-C-I-S-E", the designated quantity of each article of clothing has been computed based upon estimated need. However, this was done without regard for the capacity of our luggage, so the challenge will be to make it all fit. Of course Theresa will have no problem fitting all of her items in our luggage since she can authorize overflow into Joe's luggage.

On a serious note, wanted to share that all of our financial needs for this trip have been met through the generousity of numerous folks. Thanks so much for taking this trip personal and partnering with the Church Plant Movement.

Love you all. Thanks so much for "standing in the gap" for this endeavor. Joe and Theresa
