The house has been emptied of its contents. We got rid of half our stuff (thank you, Craigslist), yet still filled a storage unit. Today we wrap up some loose ends here in the U.S., then head to the airport at 4:00 am tomorrow.

Each of us has two suitcases and a carry-on, filled with everything we’ll need for a year of living in México. We’ve distributed the heavy items amongst the suitcases, with 6 of the 8 right at 50 lbs each.

Our church family prayed for us on Saurday, and our closest friends threw us a nice fairwell dinner last night, with more prayers and tears. We’re being sent on our journey filled with love for our community, and we’ll miss them.

Now, we’re off on our adventure together.
