John Denver and I have alot in common right now

I a little less than 12 hours my plane will be landing in the Guayaquil Simon Bolivar Airport in Guayaquil, Ecuador. There to pick me up will be Dave Erdel (a missionary born and raised in Ecuador who teaches at one of the bible schools in the city), Enrique Martinez (pastor of the Iglesia Galilea church that I will be working alot with during the next eight weeks). I have never actually met either of them in person, but we have been sending frequent email the last month. The first couple days I will spend settling in, but I just found out about 30 minutes ago there is a chance I will be going out of town to a nearby city to visit my roommates grandparents with her sister and mom.
There are so many possibilities and so many things I still need to take care of before I leave for the airport in the next 7 hours.
We are having a send off dinner at the Nehemiah House before I leave tonight. Were we will just eat and pray for my trip. It is such a blessing to have the support and prayers of so many people.

I know I will need it.
