Delayed Again!

 

Our 10:15 a.m. flight Sunday morning from Accra to JFK in New York via Delta was delayed until noon due to fueling issues.  When we landed at JFK, we again experienced delays that involved sitting on the tarmac waiting for a gate to become available.  We were finally offloaded onto a transport which drove us to a gate.  Adding to these delays was the time it took to collect our luggage and go through Customs.  Bottom line: we are 2 for 2 -- we missed the connection from JFK to Boston.

By God's grace, Rachel and Cheryl were able to get on stand-by for the next flight to Boston scheduled for 10:10 p.m.  Tara, Elizabeth, Donna, Ron, and Pastor Seth were scheduled for the Monday morning flight to Boston at 8:15 a.m.  Discussions were underway about alternate possibilities, but since Rachel and I had to leave the rest of the team, I'm not sure of the final outcome at this point.

Rachel and I arrived safely in Boston this morning (now officially Monday) at 12:46 a.m.  The 10:10 p.m. flight boarded at 11 p.m. and took off at midnight.

God doesn't promise that the road will be easy, but He does promise to walk with us.

In Christ,
Cheryl
