And we’re off!
Well this will be the last message we write from the USA! As many of you know, Jason and I have really struggled with not letting the anxiety and fear of this journey overshadow the possibilities of amazing results for Brayden. The staff at Brayden’s school had a prayer blanket made for him. On the back, they had written bible verses. As I unfolded the blanket to read the verses, my thumb was on the verse “Be not afraid, only believe.” Mark 5:36. That really hit home for us, so we have decided to make that our “motto” for this trip. We do believe that we have been given the chance to make a difference for Brayden. If we let fear take over our lives, think of all the amazing opportunities and experiences we would miss out on- even if that means hauling two kids, 8 bags of luggage, a stroller, and a wheelchair around the city of Shanghai!! Please pray that goes okay! We will miss you all very much! Talk to you when we get to China!
With love,
Jason, Lorie, Brayden and Brylie
