We're leaving a week from Friday, and we're almost ready! We think?
We've had a few fun fundraisers lately - a swing dance gala in the Blue Room a week ago, which drew a nice crowd for some swing dance lessons, some time to practice, and then an informational bit to let people what we're hoping to do, featuring an ICS alumna who traveled 2 years ago to a couple of the same places we're going to this year giving a testimony of what she learned on her trip. Saturday was Northwestern's homecoming (Go Eagles!) and we sold concessions next to the stands. The chilly weather made perfect weather for selling hot donuts, hot apple cider, and some SE Asian coffee - a nice complement to an Eagles' win.
Sunday we worshiped together in Reilly's church. Kristin, Koob, Ana, Reilly, JT, and Isaac provided worship music, Jewel and Reilly shared testimonies, and Dr Easterling briefed the congregation on what our trip is about. Afterwards, Reilly's mom treated us to a full Thanksgiving dinner. THANK YOU!!
Please keep us in your prayers as we finish up Quad 1 finals and try to pack everything but the kitchen sink into our suitcases.
