Jason’s Trip

The coolest thing ever, I get to go to Africa!  I leave tomorrow. I will be traveling with Pete Allen, Jim Robason, and Joe Smith.  The crazy thing is I have only known about this mission trip for a few weeks.  Pete Allen showed up at our annual rummage sale and offered to take me with him on his trip! AMAZING!  I am so excited about going…really kind of anxious about leaving Julie and the kids…a lot anxious. 

We leave on Tuesday, July 17 at 10:00 from Northwest Arkansas and go to Chicago, then to Frankfurt Germany then to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.  We arrive in Ethiopia at 8:45pm Wednesday, July 18.  That is a long way to go…I don’t think the Vanagon could make that trip…

We depart Ethiopia on Thursday, July 19 at 10:00a.m. and go to Kampala, Uganda and arrive there at 12:15p.m.  We will be visiting several orphanages in Uganda and Kenya through July 25.  We are traveling with World Orphans. 

I will update on specifics when I get to experience them…and depending on internet connection.  I am humbled at this opportunity to go on mission.  I am hopeful this is an opening door for the future missions for Revolution students.  Thank you Lord for this amazing opportunity to impact your kingdom!

 More to come!
