final packing

Today was the day when we worked on packing everything into suitcases to take with us on the plane or to get checked once we get to the airport. We were all buisy, but we were able to get everything all packed up and organized. we have been blessed with such good attitudes of the members so far for the planning process of the trip. We also practiced telling our testimonies to a group of people today. This is something that as a member of the team we will need to do, so it is important that we become comfortable with it before we leave the country. Although this put many of us out of our comfort zone, it was a great exercise, as well as a great way to learn more about the people in our team. Please pray that these positive attitudes carry along with us as we fly out early sunday morning. Today was officially our last planning day, so we will not see eachother as a group until we show up bright and early to catch our flight. Our flight information for the entire trip is as follows (we will be flying US airways both ways) :
