At 10:30 pm, all 28 students and accompanying staff have boarded a largely empty 767 and anticipate an hour or ao in the de-icing lane before take-off!  As you can see in the photo, our flight is one of the select few departing from Atlanta today! 

We are greatly appreciative to Eric Turner and Lyndsay Currier for the countless hours they have spent working tirelessly over the past 48 hours to reschedule our flight. Thank you also to Bill Bain who readied the vehicles, and to Basie who joined the rank of drivers who safely navigated the icy roads to the airport!  The team of students has diligently prepared and are excited to see how God will work during the days ahead. Thank you for your prayers!

You have a army of prayer warriors from MS and LA lifting you up. When you see one flight on the entire board that wasn't cancelled, you know God wants you there today! We are so thankful for the safe drive to the airport, too! Can't wait to read more posts when you arrive. You are loved!

Of course you were able to leave in a snowstorm that had most flights cancelled. God has work for you to do and he will not allow any delays or cancellations. The entire group is in our prayers! Lots of love from Florida!
