Packing Our Bags


This week we are finalizing plans to literally travel around the world over the next month. First up, a trip to Dublin, Ireland to see our favorite quartet in action. I'll tell Bono, Larry, Adam, and The Edge you said hello (over a fresh pint of Guinness in a local pub). AP and I are making that trip with great friends, and this is the first time in a long time I am traveling out of the country for something other than serving others. Although, I promise I'll still be nice to people.

Following Ireland, we return home for 3 days to pick up Biddy and head to Cambodia to gather up some hope from our friends at Transitions Global, who are highly successful at helping girls find a future once they have been rescued from slavery. I have no idea how long the flight is, but I know we go from Cincinnati to Memphis to LA to Singapore to Phnom Phen. Whew.

From Phnom Phen we travel to Mumbai to see the girls who have not yet recieved that future. From Mumbai we fly into Newark, and then Cincinnati. Literally, we're going around the world.

Why are we taking a 14 month old with us? It's time for Cana to start learning the family business -- fighting for freedom in various forms.
