Saying Goodbye
I am writing this Blog in the Washington DC airport. Yesterday I was scheduled to leave for Houston, but the flight was cancelled. I was rerouted to Detroit then to DC. Last night I arrived in DC and lugged my 4 trunks, 1 suitcase and a bike to the Hotel. This morning ran smoothly and now I am waiting to board my flight! I feel like I can relax now that everything is checked in.
Saying Goodbye to friends was very surreal. The reality of my departure became much more clear as the days until departure became less and less. I am sad to leave friends and family, but so ready to look down from my window seat at the beautiful hills and farm land that cover East Africa.
On Sunday, Kyla and I attended a great send off party at Downtown Church. I enjoyed saying goodbye to so many people that I love and appreciate. We were surrounded by prayer and sent with words of encouragement. What a fun event.
I'll write more when I arrive in Rwanda!!

Hey,
Sorry I missed your send-off. I had really hoped that I could make it back in time, but Mike and I left later than we expected... Anyway, I wish I was going back to Africa!!!
Have a great trip! I'll be praying for your work in that place. Greet everyone for me!
Tutaonane baadye,
chad.
