Buying Tickets

Well it looks like everyone has their initial funds in so I'm putting in the calls to our booking agent tomorrow about booking our tickets!!! WOOHOO!!

So far I have Aprils paperwork and Passport.

I also have Kim's paperwork too. Kim, we will need your actual passport in order to get your visa. 

We ask for everyone's passport so that we can submit them to the consulates office so we can get the visa stamps before we go. The consulate will then send the stamped passports back to us and we can send them back to you.

I'd like to get all signed and notarized paperwork AND passports from everyone as soon as possible so we can get visa approvals as soon as possible.

Thanks again everyone. I'll be in touch with everyone later this week over the phone about exact ticket dates, times and itineraries.

9 1/2 weeks and counting!

Hello everyone-
I wanted to let you know I was able to get my paperwork signed by the notary at work. The ladies in HR are able to do it, our cashiers, and medical records personal as well were all able to help. It was free for me at the hospital as an employee.
I was able to sit with Chad last night and discuss some details about the trip. The meeting was coordinated at a wedding in Iowa...which is always fun! We are super excited about this trip we are all going on and hope and pray the rest of you are as well.
I personally don't think the trip could come soon enough....do any of you guys wish we could leave now? I wish we could all pack the planes this week and go go go...There are a lot more planning and discussions and decisions to be made to finalize the trip, this will come in due time. We have to be patient. God is still working on us and the people and situations we will encounter while we are going to and in Kenya. We have to stay strong for this journey whether that be: physically, emotionally, or spiritually. We can not let the things of this world distract us from the plans God has laid before us.
Keep the Faith-
April
