One step closer to Beirut

So I bought the tickets today - just about exactly the price I expected. I'll actually be returning 3rd March (works out cheaper).

Support from the church is coming in - thanks to all those who are helping. Prayers are beginning to be offered up - thanks to those praying.

Personally I'm feeling under the weather - BPPV (Google it) and a stomach bug that's going around - the bug should last only a couple of days, but he BPPV could go on for months - so I need prayer for those things too, thanks.

Beirut here we come

So, here I am again - a new year and a new tour with TACO.

The group is ********, based in Istanbul, but the tour is in Lebanon. I leave Monday 16th Feb and get back Monday 2nd March. There will be two or three days of practice in Istanbul followed by the tour.

Current needs - prayer (as always) for courage, effectiveness, and safety (that last one for my family left in Paris!) - and there is a shortfall in funding at the moment.

I'll write more as it becomes more certain!
