We are here. Most of us have had a very long day. In talking with team members, it seems that most everyone was up before their alarm clock was set to go off. That's if they slept at all. Feelings ranged from anxiety to excitement and anything in-between. Some had never left the South Eastern United States before. Some had never been on a commercial flight prior to today. We are all equally glad to be here and equally excited to see what God will do in our lives in the next several days.
Don't think that we have forgotten about our friends and family back home. Worries about sick family members or the feelings about being away from loved ones in general linger. What we do know and take comfort in is that God is omniscient and omnipresent.
Our travels went as smooth as could be. Flights were ahead of schedule, navigating airports went smoothly and everyone's luggage made it. Some time after leaving the airport in Managua we stopped at a Tip-Top (Central American fast food chain that serves grilled and fried chicken) for a late lunch. There we ran into a second Living Water International (LWI) team from Northern VA who will be drilling at another village in the area.
Upon arrival at the LWI compound we went over some rules of the house, helped unload a supply truck and then ate a delicious dinner.
After dinner we spent some time praying and sharing some of what God has done in our lives and how we've arrived to where we are now, physically and/or spiritually. We prayed for all of you, our team, our goal & mission but most of all that God would use us. We ask that you do the same throughout this week and beyond.
One thing that is for certain is that lives will change because of the obedience of the 11 folks attending.
