It’s official! We’re off the ground (literally) on our way to Juarez to serve with Casas Por Cristo. We’re building 2 houses starting Monday morning … sharp. The second group of CCV folks left Philadelphia International at 3:15 p.m. Today (5/11/08). It’s been a blast so far. I’m writing this blog post from Delta flight #1881 in route from Atlanta to El Paso, Texas.
Traveling in this group are …
- Tyler Thomas
- Donald Thomas
- Cynthia Brey
- Justin Brey
- Ryan O’Rourke
- Kathleen O’Rouke
- Doris Grubb
- Ells Karchner
- John Jaworski
- Connie Ritchey
- Evan Flora
- Kevin Stone (Me)
- Marisa Cavanaugh
- Travis Reiter
- Diane Nace
- Zachery Michener
- Michael Giacchetta
- Melisa Jaworski
- Mark Falcone
- Justin Yerrick
- Adam Flora
- Rafael Rivera
The first group left Philadelphia International this morning at 5 a.m. (They met at the building this morning at 2:30 a.m. – yuck!) This group is picking up the vans and doing the grocery shopping that will keep us fed while we’re on the Mexico side of the border. Traveling in the first group was …
- Sean Healy (Team Leader)
- Bob Conner (Team Leader)
- Scott Peart
- Kim Peart
- Christopher Pick
- Keith Evans
- Tammy Herriman
- Keith Anderson
We’ll be landing in another hour and a half or so. I’m looking forward to hooking up with the first group. They’re picking us up at the airport and we’ll all head for the church that will be our place to stay for tonight.
Depending on internet connectivity while we’re in Mexico, I’ll do my best to document the trip here on my blog. I’ve also been snapping pictures for your viewing pleasure.
More to come …
