Word of Life Argentina
I'm sending you off to open their eyes so they can see the difference between dark and light, and choose light.



"I'm sending you off to open their eyes so they can see the difference between dark and light, and choose light, see the difference between Satan and God, and choose God. I'm sending you off to present my offer of sins forgiven, and a place in the family, inviting them into the company of those who begin real living by believing in me." Acts 26:18

Sweet Home Argentina

All we can say is PRAISE The LORD... we finally made it!

Let me tell you a little bit about our travel adventure...

We left monday afternoon around 12-20, we arrived on time and everything went well at the check in, we had 2 bags that were overweight but it was easy to take some things out and leave them with mom and dad.
Saying goodbye went really well.. we could totally feel the prayers of everyone during this time. thank you!

When we arrived at our gate we found out that there was a two hour delay on our plane coming in. The time went pretty fast but our plane did not. It ended up being close to a 3 hour wait and so we were unsure as to whether or not we would catch our connecting flight in Atlanta.

Turns out we missed our flight, and that the next available flight was 24 hours later. So they gave us vouchers for a hotel and for food... heres where our little story gets exciting...
We arrived at our hotel around 10'30 dropped our bags off and went to find a computer to inform our families about our delay. I, Lyndee, went to get us pizza at the restaurant, Gaby joined me and we had about a 20 minute wait for a free pizza that was big enough for Gaby only... so we decided to walk across the street to KFC and buy some more food.

Well by this time it was 11' and raining and all the fast food places were closed. So we tried to walk through the drive through... wasnt open either, but we ended up meeting a homeless woman.
She kept asking us for money becuase she said she had three grandkids to feed and wanted to buy spaghetti. We offered her our pizza instead, she said no, she wanted the money, we offered the pizza again, still no. she just wanted money... so we started to leave and then she decided she wanted the pizza.

So there we were 11'30, raining, and no food. we walked to arbys, tried to walk through the drive through, and we got to the window, they told us we could order... but then a car came. and they had to take them first. then we waited. and ten more cars came.
we left. went to a gas sation. they had nothing. went back to arbys. waited 20 more minutes outside for food. nothing. walked across the street to another gas station. finally found microwaveable burritos and went to the hotel.

It was a loooong night. haha.

The next day we had to check out at 12 pm
we went to the airport and had an 8 hour wait.
Thankfully we had a fun day and the time went by really fast.
We boarded. took off. couldnt sleep the whole night. arrived. slept. ate steak! and then had a great day with Gabes family!!!

Thanks for all of your prayers for our safety! All in all the trip went very well and we Praise God for the safety !
