The BIG Day

So it's finally here ... the BIG day. What BIG day you may ask? Well then, let me tell you ...

Dude, ECUADOR!!!

Oh yeah, that's right. I'm heading to Ecuador in just under 10 hours. It's going to be fan flippin tastic. I'm taking a team of 9 others (7 kids, aged 11 - 15 and 2 adult leaders) and we're going until July 27th. It's going to be a great time ...

So today, I was in the office because I needed to get a few things done. Jamie N, Ashley Bergner, David Schunker and Tyler Thomas all came by and helped out ... boy did I need it. I get in the office, thinking it's going to be a slow day ... do a few things leave at noon ... I didn't leave until about 2:45 pm. I had a whole pile of voicemails, one of which was from BigWorld (the trip organizers) saying they didn't get any of our paperwork ... know what that meant? Yeah, I have to redo all our notorized forms (about 25 of them) and get parents to sign them too ... not an easy task.

Anyways, we're leaving soon ... I'm packed ... got my immodium, no wait I don't ... dang it, I think I forgot my immodium (y'know, for diarhea) but please keep us in prayer. We all need it ... already the enemy has started to attack our team and so please as soon as you read this, stop and pray protection and favor on us ... you guys rock ...

Love and miss you all already,

Uncle Ben
