12 days until our journey begins!

Praise God, today we finally received our Nigerian visas. We are so relieved to have our passports back so close to leaving:) I posted a picture of some of John's relatives that we will be meeting in Nigeria. It's hard to believe that after praying for 15 years to find his long lost relatives, we will actually be meeting them and seeing the land of his father. Update on Rwanda: John has been working hard on designing the playground and making a materials list for the project in Gisenyi. We have also been busy collecting shoes, school supplies, and small gifts to pack in our suitcases for the orphans. I am most looking forward to hugging and loving on all the kids. I can't wait for that. It seems surreal that we will be there in two weeks. WOW.
