{FECA Vision Choir} Arrived safely

July 12 - Vision tour started with a lot of drama with a phone call from Eric's dad at about 6 AM. They had forgotten to take Eric's passport from the bank safe so he could not come with us on the morning flight. He called Uncle Eugene, our travel agent who put Eric on standby for the next flight. Not knowing his status, we also do not know if we should wait at the Mexico City airport for Eric to arrive or whether Chris Rattay can be contacted and is able to arrange a ride for Eric when he finally gets there. So we are already learning at the start of tour that our God is sovereign and that He is in control. We also realize that we one boy, and if one member hurts (like Eric), we all hurt.
Pastor Dan picked Mei and I up and swung by to pick upJee Hyae and got to the airport around 6:45. A lot of families were there already, missing only Kaitlin, Elisabeth and Crystal so we got in the check in line. Halfway through, we were joined by the missing three. We got checked in, and both Donn and Dan prayed for us and Megan's family prepared a goody bag for each of us, snacks to sustain us while waiting and Kathy passed them out to us, thank you. After some picture taking, we proceeded to go through security. The line was slow so that by the time we all passed the screening, it was time to board the flight at 8:30.
We arrived safely with all our luggage and found out Eric was not able to catch the flight so he is going to catch the red eye tonight and get in early in the morning. He will then catch the bus for Cuernavaca and someone will go from Taxco and meet him there to join up with us. Pray for Eric's adventure and safety as e travels by himself in a foreign country. Meanwhile, we boarded our chartered bus and after about two hours, we stopped at Cuernavaca for dinner then continued on to Taxco. The drive is very beautiful. Everything is so green and the hillside is lush with vegetation. God has indeed created a good place here.
