The Support and Encouragement

We want to thank all of our family and friends for the support provided! Tonight was an excellent night, we had 2 gatherings, we had gifts, and made wonderful memories. We appreciate all the support and encouragement, it has been shown to us since day 1!!! Since we first started making plans!
We also appreciate all the advice that was provided as well. Going to another country that is underdeveloped, potentially higher in crime, low on resources, and different than what we are used to does bring some risks, therefore thanks for all our concerned loved ones who took the time to share important tips on how to look out for ourselves individually and as a group. We will pray everyday to keep everyone in our hometown safe and ask that y'all keep us in mind too!!! 2 more days and we are off....
