We would like to introduce you to TEA-02/2009!
From back left:
Katrin (Germany), Alison (England), Sarah (England),
Brittney (USA), Ruth (Northern Ireland),
Tyler (USA), Jordan (Canada)
The TEAm has been busy the past day and a half going through orientation and gear checks to prepare them for their time on TEA. Tomorrow they leave on their first three day tramp (hike) and so everyone is busy packing and sorting gear to take on their trip.
Please be praying for this new team, as they get to know each other, get over jet lag from travel here, and embark on their journey of growth & adventure with the Lord and each other.
Thank you for your prayers! Check in with us here to see the what's happening with the TEAm over the next ten weeks.
Until next time...

What a great looking group of evangelists!
Brittney, we are very proud of you. We missed you at both dances this weekend. Everybody asked about you and your excellent adventure. We'll forward your Blog address to the club.
New Zealand looks much more exciting than Weatherby Lake this time of year.
Stay safe and have a great time!
Love,

P.S. My text messages aren't going through for some reason. I need to talk to Verizon. Can you hear me now? Send Brook a text if you need to tell me something for now.
Hi Sarah.
You all look so great together, really ready to get going. It's nice to be able to put faces to names. Trust you to get under the mini bus! Still, you're doing the washing!:)
I'm SO proud of you for taking this trip and I'm really excited to see what God does in you and through you. I pray that you will all embrace all that God has for you during this time. It's going to be great to see it all unfold.
Praying for you all.
Loads of love
Mum
