Leaving on a business trip
http://thenightwriterblog.powerblogs.com/posts/1172099681.shtml


   "Missions trip" has a certain connotation in religious circles,
   denoting a special status for what really should be viewed as an every
   day outlook on life. (Our pastor has said, "God will send you across
   the world, but He also wants to send you across the street.") I
   suppose you could say Jesus went on the ultimate "missions trip" when
   He was sent to us. At one point during this mission He said, "I must
   be about my Father's business."
   Later this week Tiger Lilly and the Reverend Mother will therefore be
   leaving on their own business trip to Romania, with a stop in Texas
   for some training and orientation on the way. It's a trip that was
   researched and instigated about a year ago by Tiger Lilly through
   [1]Global Expeditions. Some time after she had committed to go her
   mother was also led to join the group. TL was ready and willing to go
   it on her own with the Global Expeditions team, but is glad to have
   her favorite mom along. Despite being "just" 13, this is her second
   overseas trip, having gone with her mother to China for three weeks
   the summer before last. (Details [2]here, [3]here and [4]here).
   I hope Tiger Lilly will have time before they leave to put up a post
   on how and why she chose this trip and how she was able to raise
   enough money not only for this trip but to also set some aside for the
   next one, whenever or wherever that may be. She and the Reverend
   Mother are taking a wireless laptop along and the digital camera and
   should have relatively good access for posting as the trip goes on.
   Stay tuned.

         Last Sunday our church prayed for our latest missionaries.
