We're Off!

We start the travel portion of our Journey to Jenna tomorrow, May 17th. We plan to leave Wilmington around 3:00 for an overnight stay in Raleigh. We have to be at the airport by 6:00 Friday morning and then off to Washington and then to Beijing. We are all running on low fuel - having a lot of restless nights. Madison is so giddy she can't sleep either - she is so excited about finally meeting her little sister - she, of course, plans to carry Jenna on her hip like the little mama she is. Please continue to pray for safe travel and for God to prepare Jenna for our arrival.

We would like to say "Thank You" to everyone who has contributing to our effort to get to China. Thank you to everyone who donated items for us to take to the orphanage and the monetary gifts we will use to purchase more items such as school supplies for the kids in the Fenyi Orphanage. May God Bless you all! It is amazing the things we all take for granted like having paper to write on, a pencil to write with that this kids live without on a daily basis. You have all helped enrich the lives of the children in such a huge way. I pray God will continue to guide us and show us how we can to help these children in the future. Most especially, we Thank You all for your prayers as we know first hand that He is definitely listening and has opened many doors for us throughout this journey.

We will post a message when we arrive in Beijing.

Blessings, Rick, Teresa and Madison
