There's no place like home and hopefully by now all team members have made it home! I say this because our dear teammates Susan and Dave got stuck in Charlotte last night. After an unexpected visit to Memphis this morning - they were headed to Louisville and then a 2 hour drive home.
Yesterday was a long day - as we awoke at 3:00am and departed the seminary at 4:00am. Arriving at the Barquisimeto airport to begin the long wait for our flight to depart. We stood in several lines - all of us trying to understand the reasoning behind each one. Our flight was due to depart at 6:30 and finally left around 8:00. Thankfully we had a built in layover cushion which we used most of. At some point while waiting in line Kathy and Stacy tried clicking their heels Dorothy style to go home - it didn't work! A quick connect in Curacao and we were off to Charlotte. Arriving back in the states made us all feel a little closer to home. One more flight - with a little deicing and we were there.
We want to thank you all for following us on our journey. We laughed and loved a lot. We were able to be bold and spread the Word of God. We shared the gospel message with many. And we hope that by our actions Christ's love was able to shine through.
Thanks to those who supported us with their prayers as well as those who contributed monetarily. We couldn't have done it without you.
Please pray over the next year for our friends new and old in Venezuela. Please pray for Pastor Smith, his congregation and his community. Please pray for the seminary as they educate these pastors in VZ.
We were blessed to be a part of this mission and can't wait to return next year! Venezuela 2014 - Here We Come!
Signing Off for the Team -
Kathy Reeves (AKA - Juanita!)
