Arrived at LAX

IMG_0417Hey everyone!

We are excited to tell you that all the California crew have arrived at LAX airport and have finished the fun check in process on Turkish Airlines. We are all here, besides our friends flying out of Houston and Chicago who will be meeting us in Israel. While our group is not all together we are having fun getting to know the West Coast crew for the first time.  Travel always has surprises and our flight is delayed leaving LAX by a few hours.  Not a problem as the GTI crew has us all set up with new connecting flights and we will be in Israel before we know it.  Also this means we get some extra time to explore the Istanbul airport and eat Turkish Delight.

While we all might be strangers at this point we have a lot in common as everyone works in some form of vocational ministry. Truly this is going to be a trip of a lifetime and we look forward to seeing how God will use this group of men and women to help shape our time together. Keep following this blog as we will be updating often. Here is to the 12-hour flight ahead of us with a coupe hour layover in Istanbul and then another two hour flight to the Holy Land.
