Oh and Praise the Lord! From all the "ble$$ings" that he received we were able to go out that night and get him a digital camera!!! I am greatly relieved as I could not stand the thought of him not having instant pictures as he was only going to be taking disposables! So I hope to be able to get him to send me some photos of his surroundings and things that he sees as the days go by!
Thats not even half of it all!
Pleasant surprises from Downriver friends!

Sunday was a little bitter-sweet as we drove John down to the airport and waited around till he had to go through security.

Are you ready?
Last goodbyes and off he goes.
We praise God for this great opportunity that He has given John and pray that God will bless and guide him on his way and that John will find strength in his Lord through all the difficulties and differences and that he will return even closer to his Savior and filled with knowledge and wisdom for the road ahead!
You will show me the path of life;
In Your presence is fullness of joy;
at Your right hand are pleasures forever more.
Psalm 16:11
We love you John and miss you greatly!
