Here we go!

The time has come... our bags are packed! We're feeling about every emotion under the sun but excitement is certainly the most dominant :)

We depart at 1:30 PM from Grand Rapids and by 10 PM on Sunday we'll have made it to Dar Es Saalam. We'll be greeted in Tanzania by a few people from E.P.I.C. and Monday morning we'll make our way to the Iringa region of Tanzania where we'll begin learning about the program and the water projects. 
Over the past week we've tried to catch up with family and friends and have felt an overwhelming amount of love and support which we appreciate so very much. We've taken the time to learn how to drive a stick (thank you Manifolds!), celebrated birthdays, and searched almost every store in the West Michigan area for international necessities which we think we're covered with!

Please continue to keep us in your prayers as we make our way over to Africa and begin this experience. Specific prayers for not too many tears when we say good-bye, safety in travel and mostly that the Holy Spirit shows up and guides our interactions and experiences. 

We're thrilled you're taking this journey with us through our blog and we promise to keep the updates coming as much as possible. 

Lots of Love-
Ty + Michelle
