Acts 17:31 (NIV)
31 For he has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the man he has appointed. He has given proof of this to all men by raising him from the dead."

Day one has been a long one.  Many of us did not go to bed last night.  We met at the church at 1:30 a.m. and flew out of Regan National Airport arriving in Belize shortly after 3:30 this afternoon.  The flights went well and we made our usual stop at Cheers for lunch.  We stopped at several road-side stands to pick up some locally grown fruit including one of our favorites - pineapples. 
It was good to be reunited with our friends from Hosanna House.  There are many new faces as well as many famliar ones.  It took a while for some of those old friends to warm up to us, but a fun game of heads-up, seven-up seemed to to the trick.  The people at Hosanna House have become dear to our hearts and those who are making the trip for the first time quickly made new friends.  Michael reminded us tonight during team time how important it is for us to be sharing the whole gospel message with these kids, including what God has saved us from .

Please pray for the rest of our team -  Don and Lisa Heavner, Brittany Evans, and Jason and Conner Duncan as they are about to make the same journey that we did today.  We had to bring the team down in two stages because we are limited by the 14-passanger van that we travel in.  Our team consists of 17 people.  In addition to the five mentioned above, Linda and Bekah Shearer, Andrew Wyman, George Traub, Paul Bittner, Jada Vance, and Doug, Deb, Michael, Lauren, Matthew, and Mark Phillippy.
