We're off! (nearly)


Well, we're off! 
The team from St Mary's Bletchley, are zooming off into the sunset ably flown (we hope) by the highly luxurious and exclusive Kuwait Airways. Kuwait Airways are famous for many things, most of which involve hijackings in the 1980's. 
We're off at 4am tomorrow morning in the church mini bus, which hasn't recently been involved in any hijackings. (The last one  in 1979 involved some gun waving fundamentalist mothers union members from the local methodist church.)
Mixed feelings as we prepare to leave: Sad to leave family, happy to finally go. Excited to see Kanlungan, not excited to sit in a plane for hours on end..
Over coming days we'll try to keep you updated with what we're doing, how we're feeling and what God is doing amongst us in Manila. Please feel free to comment, it will be great to hear from people... Cheers, Tim (Bustin)
