Pre-Trip Message

Hey, thanks for checking out the Good Rain '11 blogspot.  I will do my best to up-date it with thoughts, experiences and things while in Rwanda.  To get you up to speed I before I leave, check out the following:

Prayer Needs:
 Safe Travel
  Health...it is hard to teach if you cannot stand up!
  Discernment...in a different culture it sometimes hard to tell if you are being effective
  For the Rwandan Pastors to learn a ton.
  For God to save lives through better trained Rwandan Midwives.

Here is a copy of the itinerary, so you can be in prayer.
