Arrival in Nigeria

We just heard from the NATIVITY:NIGERIA team and they have all made it safely to Nigeria! Their flights were delayed in BWI and JFK but both teams arrived this afternoon. The Faith Alive Team has completed the journey to Jos and the Anawim Home Team is with Sister Oresoa in Abuja. It was just a brief conversation and they were "tired, but happy to be there there safe and sound." More information to come in the next day or so, but now the teams can get some rest as they have arrived in their destination for the next two weeks.

Just wanted to let you know that I am and will continue to pray for you all every day. Can't wait to read what you're doing and experiencing. Hope everyone is recovering from your long journey and also hope the chocolate did the trick :-) God Bless you all!

Mom,

It was great to hear your voice tonight. The timing of your call was perfect. Many people at the pool today asked about you and offered their support for what you and the team are doing. We miss you and will continue to pray for you. Summer misses you very much.

XOXOXOXO
