We want to say thank you so much for all or your support both spiritually and financially over the last few months. It is amazing to see how much God has blessed us in so many ways already before we have even taken off. As of last week Sunday both Shelby and I met our fundraising goals and surpassed them providing us with the opportunity to donate the extra funds to the operating expenses at Beautiful Gate. God has been evident throughout this entire process and we firmly believe that anything is possible with Him when its in His timing! We could not have done this without all of you. Thank you! Our bags are now packed and our flight is scheduled to leave tomorrow night at 7:20 pm. We are looking forward to what God has in store for us over the next 2 months. Tomorrow we will be taking off out of Grand Rapids and flying to Chicago. From there we head straight to London where we have an 8 hour layover. After which we will take off for Johannesburg. From Johannesburg we have a short flight to Maseru, Lesotho. We hope to arrive in Maseru at 10:40 am Lesotho time (6 hours ahead of Michigan time) on August 6. We would appreciate your prayers during the next few days if possible as there will be a lot of flights to catch and time spent on airplanes and in airports. We know that we are not going into this alone and that it is all planned out based on what God has in store! Thank you again for all you have done in making this trip possible for us! We pray that God will work in us and through us during our time in Lesotho.
God bless,
Jesse and Shelby
