We have 103 “hits” on this site so far, and we haven’t even left yet!! It’s nice to know that so many people are interested and will be praying for this trip. I imagine most of these “hits” are students and maybe some parents, but even so, it suggests that there are some excited (maybe a bit nervous) people out there! Well, if you’re looking for more details, here they are: (for the next 24 hours at least)
Today, Tuesday 5:00pm – students – PLEASE have your suitcase and sleeping bag in the Assembly Room no later than 5:00!!! The sponsors will be weighing and tagging all of the bags and loading them on the bus this evening.
Wednesday, 12:30pm – please meet at the bus with your carry-on. You need to wear your blue fleece. You MUST be seated on the bus by 12:45. You know which bus you are supposed to be on if you were listening at the meeting today. Look for your prayer group!
See you guys then!! London, here we come! By the way, it’s raining in London – bring a travel-size umbrella if you have one. It is snowing hard in St Petersburg right now – should be pretty by the time we get there on Friday!
Mrs. K
Here we go! The countdown is on. Suitcases are being packed, visas are being processed, and last-minute details worked out. 7 months of planning have dwindled down to 9 days. It seems hard to believe (our director believes it!!).
If you are reading this blog, you are in some way connected to Fletcher Academy – student, parent, teacher, grandparent, friend. We’re so glad you want to follow our mission trip, and we ask that you keep us in your prayers. God has blessed us in so many ways, and we are looking forward with anticipation to the blessings He has in store!! So please pray for the Holy Spirit to keep us focused, for God to open people’s hearts to our message, for our safety, and for our students to be blessed in ways unimaginable.
We will try to post updates as often as possible once our trip begins. We may not always have great internet access, but will try our best to update daily at the least. We will also try to post pictures as we are able. We want you to share this journey with us! You can subscribe to this blog by email or an RSS feed by clicking on the link on the home page of this site.
Thanks for your interest and prayers! Until February 24…. God bless.
