Astrud and Emily are off........Please keep them in your prayers...

Astrud and Emily right before they boarded the plane for their mission trip. These girls are amazing and they have true hearts for their creator. May God bless them and keep them safe while they are teaching people about his grace and love. And say a prayer for this momma.....she is learning to let go and let God.

Hugging her Daddy!
Big brother Christopher helping Astrud with the zipper on her backpack!

cute suit. By the way, the book came today. Sounded like G's little friends in pre-school. Were you listening in to the "not your friend" stuff going on? you must teach pre-schoolers, heh.

Blessings on their mission trip, such a wonderful experience they are going to have!

And yes! Use the balloon idea! I wish I had paid more attention to what other people did! Another idea is to order (you need about 2 weeks we didn't have the time) custom made fortune cookies. You can have whatever you want put inside. Some ideas were her name and a bible verse or you blog address so people can follow your journey.

Faith, Hope, and Love said...

Praying that God holds Astrud and Emily in the palm of His hands!

Love the swim suit! :)

Have a great weekend!

Blessings,
Robin

It's so wonderful that our young people have oportunities to go to places like this. I love hearing their stories when they get back.
Our team are on their 3rd day and are enjoying the village people expecially the children.
Saying a prayer for your girls.
