Hello Malawi Missionaries Ready to Head Home!

I hope your R&R retreat at the animal reserve was a very enjoyable and relaxing one for each of you. I look forward to seeing the photos of the animals you saw.

In Halftime last night, we showed your team photo and I asked everyone to pick one of you and pray for a strong finish to your trip. I hope you are sensing some of that prayer support as you prepare to  head home.

We are sure looking forward to hearing(and seeing) some of your trip highlights on Sunday.  Dave, I assume you will get all the trip media to Kathy before the service.

We will be thinking and praying for you all as you begin the long trip home.

O cant wait to see grandma and papa.  Have a safe (and quick!) trip home!
We can't wait to see everyone and hear about the trip!
 
Love, the other Gelvins

Hello faithful friends and family,

We are in the Johannesburg  airport in South Africa. The team has split off to eat, shop and whatever you do if you don’t have a laptop and Internet. Forgive them for their absence on this final blog. We have loved sharing our adventure with you and reading your encouraging words.
I will leave you with a photo collage of our last two days at Mfuwe Lodge in Luangwa National Park in Zambia. We drove for six hours with 3 hours on a dirt washboard worn road. But it was worth it!

We arrive at LAX at 1pm on Saturday. We look forward to be home. We are looking forward to sharing our stories with you on Sunday and the days to come. For our families, be prepared to endure 100s of photos.
We love you guys,

Dave and Jackie, Cliff and Vanessa, Tom and Sandy.
