COUNTDOWN: 6 days to go

We have less than a week before our flight departs for the Czech Republic on Friday May 29th. This is our last weekend at home before our journey begins. Some of us are doing some last minute shopping and starting to pack for the trip. Some are attending graduation ceremonies and some may be guest at a wedding. Others are making plans for Memorial Day. Whatever you're doing keep The Choir Trip in your prayers.

Our partners in Czech Republic and Israel are making preparations for our arrival. They are looking forward to us joining them in opportunities to share the Gospel. Also be praying for them.

It's another rainy day (7 out of 8 straight weekends) in metro Denver. If you're a sports junkie like me you'll catch Game 3 between Nuggets and Lakers tonight at Pepsi Center. GO NUGGETS!

The Choir team (singers, instrumentalists and tech crew) will assemble again Tuesday night for a final rehearsal. Check back again on Wednesday for another update.

COUNTDOWN: 9 days before trip departure

We have a little more than a week before our flight departs for the Czech Republic on Friday May 29th. We're getting excited and there's still lots to do. Our group of about 95 includes singers, instrumentalists, technical people and family members. The singers have continued in rehearsals on Tuesday nights with Randy and Nathan to work on our sound and polish the songs selected for us to perform while we're in Pisek at Elim Church and for the concerts we'll sing in Haifa, Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. We can't wait!

Will you pray that our preparations are completed on time, that everyone stays healthy and that God will speak peace into each one of us as we prepare to leave for this mission.

This blog is created specifically for this trip to keep you updated on our daily activities. You can also post your own comments that we can pass along to the team members.

We are so grateful to you for supporting this mission.
