Team Leaves for Uganda

Here are some of the team at the airport excited to leave for the Uganda2012 Mission trip. Everyone was in great spirits as goodbys where said.
Great job everyone! 
It was such an encouragement to the team to see so many come out to see them off...thanks to the Church Staff, also, for taking the time to come out and cheer them on(thanks Fr. Free, Brother Jamie, Melanie, Margie, Sharon and Walter!!!!!! 
The message of what a "sender" is is penetrating the Body of Christ at St. John's....the entire Drew Warfuel family showed up to cheer the team on to service. I was particularly touched that they brought their children along...teaching about missions early!
 
Also, Lynn Lawrence (wife of Bob Lawrence, St Christopher director) came along with her Ugandan flag. Our team is hoping to meet up with Newman and Trish (Sosnowski) Lawrence in Kampala this weekend! Trish and Newman are on a long term mission with Palmetto Medical Initiative.

Mama Emily looked a bit sad not to be getting on that plane! Thanks to Emily and her team of senders who feed, encouraged, prepared and loved this team onto Gulu....

Let's stay in touch with one another as we hear from the team...hit "reply all" if you hear from one of the team members so we can all hear the news. Let us also stay in touch if someone is sick, or needs something, so we can help and pray for one another! 

I "text", so my cell phone number is 843-709-1166, if anyone needs to get in touch with the Snyder ladies!

May God richly bless our TEAM as they travel, and may the God of peace which passes all understanding keep our hearts and minds on HIM!   Beth Snyder
