We're almost on that plane!

We had filled four bags to check, and all, we knew were over weight. Even our carry on baggage is over the allowed limit per passenger.

When we arrived at the airport, there was a problem with the systems and every piece of checked baggage needed an additional number tag that had to be distributed by a certain staff member.

as it turns out, a man had helped us in with our luggage, checked it all in, though it was over the allowed weight, forgave a certain allowance for a 5th bag and sent us on our way! What a blessing! We certainly couldn't have removed anything else from the luggage. Its filled with clothes, shoes and meds for the orphans in Kimisagara.... these are much needed items!

And we're in the clear! Now, we're waiting to board a flight that, Lord willing will carry us closer to these children. Thank you for praying!

To tack on a prayer request, please pray that Jose and Montse have equal favor with their luggage situation.... and, honestly that nothing will be stolen.

Thank you! The next time you'll hear from us, we'll be in Kigali!
