Answers from the airport

Mom just called with an update. Everyone's bags were checked without any problems. Mom was really concerned (mainly because she is a Liles and we don't know how to pack light) that her bags were going to be too heavy. Well, she is happy to report her bags weighed in at 49.5 lbs (the limit was 50) and her carry-on was 17.5 lbs (the limit was 17.6). She also is happy to report she now has a confirmed seat on the flight from Dusseldorf to Kiev. This was really good news considering the agent in Memphis warned the group to not leave the international secured area because if they left the area they would be arrested and sent to prison. Mom is happy to now have confirmation (she likes her confirmation ahead of time). She wants you all to know she is rested, refreshed, and hopes to flourish (an answer to Aggie from France Psalm 92 prayer). I will keep you posted as I hear from mom, Molly

UKRAINE BOUND


6/20/12 UKRAINE BOUND---FLIGHT LEAVES AT 10:40 am. Headed to airport in 15 minutes.
HOORAY! HOORAY!! We’re on our way---our summer vacation (mission trip) begins today. That’s a Liles tradition so my kids will “get it”.

These verses and lots of prayers are "packed" and going with me!
Philippians 2:3-5, (team verse) John 10:10, Psalm 92
For updates on the trip, “my” Molly will blog updates as she receives them though contact will be very limited. For regular updates, in interested, you can send your email address to "Jennifer Baumer" <jenbaumer@gmail.com>, or If you do FaceBook check out the church FB page at FirstEvanUkraineTeam.
All prayer “donations” certainly appreciated by this old lady.

Excited and shaky----but God......is clearly in control for which I am so grateful.
Love to all---
