Is God good or what!

And the planning goes on...

The UMC Missions team has been busy with the planning of our mission outreach trip to Mozambique for 2009. It's been a lot of work, as well as some long nights of typing e-mails and other documents.

We've been wondering just how many people the Lord wants on the trip, how many vehicles He wants us to take along, and so many other details.

We had 2 vehicles in mind, but had some questions about them, especially since the area in which we are to be working has some major soft sand. One of the vehicles was only a 4x2. For the uninformed, that means that it only drives on 2 wheels - basically just like any normal, run of the mill road-going car or bakkie. In other words... in soft sand, the chance of getting stuck is dramatically increased! We need 4x4s here!
The Lord provided in an amazing way for another of our team members to purchase a 4x4, in a very good condition, at a dream price. This is being serviced & prepped for the trip right now, and will provide a lot less fuss and more movement. (although I must add that I always maintain that getting stuck is good for team-building!)

This is just the beginning of it.
