It's exciting and freightening all at the same time...it seems like it's been a long time coming. For us we have been striving almost 2 years to get to the Africa Mercy and now we are actually getting close to the sailing date. The freightening part is that with 65 days left till sail this board shows there are 0 of 455 spaces completed. WILL WE MAKE IT? God knows! That wasn't a question, but a statement. He DOES know, and all the running around, worrying and fretting won't bring it about 1 second earlier or later than God's chosen time. We are called to do our very best and Robert and I are committed to that end. To do the very best we have in us to prepare this ship for the people of Africa. This is our small part, one cog in a wheel that might never really miss us if we weren't here - - BUT WE ARE GLAD WE ARE HERE! Come along for the countdown to "S" day (SAIL)...65, 64, 63.....
