The boy is leaving for Honduras in about 18 hours. He, along with about 20 other kids are going on a mission that is bigger than any single one of us.
Don’t worry, I’m not neurotic about the trip – yet.
What I am neurotic about is whether or not he will react to his malaria pills, whether or not he’ll remember to take his malaria pills, whether or not he has enough DEET, whether or not he’ll take his throat lozenges, he has a cough.
So perhaps I’m a little neurotic. Perhaps.
He’s excited, he’ll be with his friends and his very cool Youth Pastor. And I’m excited for him.
Please God, watch over their hearts and put Your protective hand upon them. Bring them all home safely. May You shine through them.
Amen.
That is wonderful! Hang in there mom, he’ll be back home before you know it.
hang in there – he will have the memories of a lifetime and it will be so good for h im.
Sounds like it will be a great trip! I remember when we went on a mission trip to India, and my malaria pills totally made me nauseous, but that was the only side effect I had. And it was pretty short lived. Hopefully he won’t have any trouble with them!
my prayers go for entire group, their mission and their safe return…
head up shoulders back Mama…this is a great oppurtunity, but i feel your pain.
i will remember him in my prayers …AND YOU mom..it is hard to let them go…he is doing a good thing puna!!
