T Minus 10 Days

I'm sure the next ten days will fly by for each of us going on this trip.  Everyone is making last minute preparations and getting ready to leave in just over one week.  


We live in Florida and don't have much of a winter.  While we are away we will be experiencing some cold temperatures.   I think when we arrive in Beijing at 10 PM on November 17th the temperature is suppose to be in the low twenties dropping into the teens.  That is cold for us!  :-)  Molly and I have gone out to purchase us some additional clothing that we will need on the trip.


There are 11 people on the team from all walks of life that will be impacted in a great way on this trip.  Three middle school students, one senior in high school, one college student, one electrician, one musician, two stay at home moms, one retired lady and one lady that works full time at her job.  All walks of life with one purpose and that is to be a blessing to the beautiful people of China.


Three weeks from now our trip will be history and we will be back in our everyday lives here in Pensacola.  I just pray the reality of the trip will shake us to where we will never be normal again!
