The weeks have quickly gone by and now it is down to 5 days before I leave for Germany with Deb and 8 others from FBC. Those who know me know I am a process driven organizer and have things all laid out mentally and physically yet something tells me I need to be open for the unknown. Jimmy, our groups leader, keeps telling us all to be “Flexible”. He has done about 9 of these trips so I take him at his word and have a process for Flexibility as well. 🙂 Our plane leaves BNA Friday at 6:34 PM for Dulles and then a 10:50 PM departure to Frankfurt. I have been instructed to take Sleeping Pills and something I have never heard of called “No Jet Lag”! What a perfect name for a miracle potion that really works according to my sources. I have ordered it from Amazon and it is supposed to be in my hands tomorrow. Even with the pills and potions, I am not sure I will be able to sleep as I love to fly and can’t wait to finally land in Germany at 11:45 AM Saturday to begin what I believe will be the most exciting time of my life.
Edgar and Birgit, our home hosts in Lich, I can’t wait to meet you. Kiki Ha and Ing Hass, I look forward to getting to know you at your home in Potsdam. How cool to visit Europe the first time and be able to stay with “The Locals”.
The past week, Deb and I have felt the prayers of many of you reading this. I especially say thanks to Eric, Brittany and Nate Gruhn, and Dan and Dian Belbeck. It is an honor to have you lift us and the team up to God. To those that have supported us financially, a big thank you. We had not even planned on putting in the financial info in our info letter. We don’t need it but God will Bless you richly and multiply it in many ways.
I will make a commitment to share my experiences here daily. I promise to post pictures and anecdotes and ways God uses this trip to bring Glory to His name—-Todd Wilson
