Houston Arrival - Part 2; Finally Home

Walter and Donna are safely home at last. They got on the 8:15 a.m. plane out of Miami and their luggage was waiting on them in Houston. They picked up the truck, headed for home, and got in around 3:00 p.m.. They are grateful for all the prayers.

This was a difficult trip but we praise the Lord for all that He accomplished.

Pray for a great night's sleep and renewed strength for tomorrow's adventures for each of our team members. I know we all will look forward to hearing the stories in the days ahead.

Getting Out?

Walter and Donna were not able to get out of Miami last night. They did get some rest - without luggage - and are praying to make it out this morning around 8:15 a.m. Luckily, their Peruvian training of wearing the same clothes has come in handy today.

Pray they will make it out of Miami, that their truck will still be in Houston, that their luggage will be easily retrieved and that they can make the drive home with no problems. Finally, pray for rest for them tonight as Walter prepares to go back to school tomorrow.

Praise God for His continued provision for and protection of our Peru Team.

Updated Prayer Request

We are happy to report that God has answered our prayers and Walter has been allowed back into the US! His passport, however, was canceled so he will have to re-apply for a new passport. Walter and Donna are presently on stand-by at Miami International. They hope to get on a flight to Houston later tonight but may not make it out until tomorrow. Walter obviously will not be back at school tomorrow. Pray for Walter and Donna to find rest and comfort while waiting. Pray for Walter to be ready to return to school on Wednesday.

As best we know, Brad, Jackie, Gloria & Linda made it out of Miami and should be landing in Houston later this afternoon. Pray for them as they arrive, retrieve their luggage and determine their next course of action.

Praise God that our team has made it back to the States and has had a very eventful trip. I know we all wait anxiously to hear the first-hand reports!
