Going...going...

It's the evening before we are to leave for New York and I (Rachel) am here with a little update.
We have been in Boston the last 5 days repacking, purchasing last minute stuff, packing, repacking and tons of other things you need to do before moving out of the country.
We have gotten to spend quality time with brother and sister in law Daniel and Tanya who live here and are graciously hosting us.
Miriam has enjoyed time with auntie and uncle as well as our old friend and companion Makwa.








Tonight we have all our stuff ready to go and tomorrow we drive to New York to AIM headquarters.
On Thursday the 14th we fly to Nairobi!

  2. Wow. That last picture represents so much work and effort!!! I love the picture of Miriam with the dog, so cute. I pray for you to feel God's close accompaniment and provision as you travel and transition, friends. -Corinna

  3. Oh uffda! You're going for real now. May you get everything in its right spot and don't forget Miriam. My skype is all fired up and ready. May Miriam rest peaceful on all flights and find enough activities to keep her occupied. As my wall-hanging in my bathroom says: "May the roads rise with you and the wind be always at your back and may the Lord hold you in the hollow of his hand." I love you. -nomes

  5. I esp. love the picture of Miriam with the dog, too. I miss seeing her smiling face at church - and both of you, as well. We'll be praying for you as you transition!

    Love you,
