Travel Update #2

Flight 1 (sophomore girls, all juniors and Abbey and Mary Carter’s senior girls small group) has landed in DC.  We are currently collecting our luggage and heading for our charter bus to head back to Williamsburg.  Our estimated time of arrival at the Chapel is right around 3:30am.  We will text you from the road if anything changes.  Everyone is doing well and is continuing to enjoy the fellowship being on a missions team provides.

Flight 2 (sophomore boys, senior boys and Paige and Sarah Graham’s senior girls small group) is about to leave Nicaragua and is expected to reach DC at 5:40am,  approximately 3.5 hours past the original scheduled time.  They did not check any luggage and therefore should have a quick transition from the plane to the charter bus to head back to Williamsburg.  Our current estimated time of arrival is between 9am and 10am at the Chapel.  We will text you from the road to give you a more accurate picture once the bus is on the highway in DC.

Despite the delay the team members on flight 2 have been able to remain positive and also continue to enjoy the deepened friendships within our mission team.

We have been blessed beyond what we could have asked for or even imagined on this trip.  Everyone is looking forward to sharing (once they have had a little rest) with you what God accomplished on this trip.  Thank you for your support through your prayers and we look forward to our safe arrival in Williamsburg.

God Bless,
SM Staff Team
