Just got a text (7:45 am CT/ 1:45 pm Africa) that the team arrived in plenty of time to cross the border into the Central African Republic (CAR) before the 4:00 border closing. The trip was good, they have been up since 2 am their time, but are still feeling fairly well. It's been a long day already.
They now have about 32 hours before the next leg of the journey. Pray that Jim and Jared will have good opportunity to "debrief" and discuss the Congo portion of the trip -- specifically the ways the Lord showed them VCL may be integral -- while they have this time in Bangui and on their subsequent flights to the Rutters. Their desire is that while they are with the Rutters that they will be able to give their full focus and energy to the Rutters and their ministry. Having debriefed together already will be a huge help toward this end.
Travel with Jared Smith and Jim Uren as they head to the Democratic Republic of Congo to learn more about the Elikya Project and the role that God has designed for VCL to play in this exciting partnership.
