I received confirmation this morning that I will be leading a team of volunteers on a trip to Sri Lanka in August, to build homes with Habitat for Humanity. This trip proposal has been in the works for about a month. Now that its official, the real work begins. Budgeting, setting travel itineraries, recruiting my team, fundraising etc. Please pray for me as I work on putting this thing together. Also pray for my team, for safe travel and productive work days, and for the families we build for in August.
UPDATE:
This trip will take place August 5–20. The team will travel to Galle, Sri Lanka where we will build a home in partnership with a local family in need. I'm looking for 11 to join the team. Volunteers must be 18 or older. No construction exerience necessary. Just be willing to travel, work, and be an active part of the team. If you're interested, or know someone else who might be, send me a PM with your email address and I'll send you the trip flyer.

Thanks everyone, for the encouragement and prayers.

Guys, please keep this trip in your prayers. We're 5 months out, and I only have 2 team members signed up. I'm starting to get nervous about getting the full team together in time. If you know of anyone looking for a travel/volunteer/mission opportunity, please send them my way.
Big thanks to Kenny (RECON45) for signing up. Wish us luck recruiting some more team members.

Thanks for the prayers all. I sent a trip flyer to the few of you who expressed an interest. At this rate, I may have a couple of 4x4Grace members on the trip. That would be awesome.
