Words from Tim and Linda on departure

Dear Ones,

Grace and peace to the saints at Tatesbrook, and to our beloved.

Our team has been blessed with a safe and smooth departure this morning from Cincinnati. We are now in Miami, and hope for arrival at about 8pm tonight in Quito. We will be met by Chet Williams and other missionaries from Shell. Tomorrow we travel to the western edge of the amazon, where we will have lunch at a waterfall. Afterwards, we will start seeing the Waoroni at a school converted to a clinic.

Enroute today, I have been reading "the signature of Jesus" by Brennan manning. It is about "radical discipleship". Early on, manning is writing about faith. He says "each next step discloses itself only out of a discernment of the influence of God in the present moment". Already today the is talking about what God has done, is doing, and will do. It is exciting to be on the edge of His action and revealed purpose.

Blessings to all of you. Continue to pray for Linda's foot. We will stay in touch.

Buoyed by His grace,
Tim and Linda
