We're on our way!

Wrote this update yesterday and just getting to post:

We just landed in San Salvador where we have a 2 hour layover before heading on to Bogota, Colombia. So far the trip has been great! We had a beautiful time with some family and friends at the airport before we left. By far the most unexpected thing was a minivan caught on fire at the airport right outside where we checked in. Lots of flames and tires exploding but no injuries....but it sure made for a memorable start! We finished the time with family and friends at the airport being prayed over with a prayer led by Oscar. After that saying goodbye...or as John reminded me "It's not goodbye, just see you in three months." I'm very grateful for that as I already miss family and friends...and our sweet pup Toby. I'm very excited though for the adventure ahead. On the plane on the way here John and I reflected on how there is a lot we don't know going into this trip...our living situation, what life will look like daily, what ministry we'll be investing in, any of the people....but we know of Our God, and He is faithful. We know He has sent us to go for a specific purpose and that He who began this good work in us will carry it on to completion. And we're looking forward to seeing God at work and discovering what lies ahead. We can feel your prayers so keep them coming!
Love you all and may you see God at work in your midst,
Katie
