Update #1 Caribbean

UPDATE 6/26 9pm PDT: The team made it to Miami after a very delayed flight, but sadly their connecting flight was long gone to the Caribbean! The plan was to fly out on a different flight from a nearby airport tonight, but they weren’t able to make it out in time to catch it. They have a hotel in Miami tonight to get some good rest and will fly out late tomorrow night (6/27) for the Caribbean! Pray that they would all have renewed energy tomorrow and that their last flight would be smooth, safe and on-time! 🙂

6/26 12:30pm PDT- Sending hello to everyone from Charlotte, North Carolina…because we’ll be here awhile.

We knew there was going to be spiritual warfare on this trip but what we didn’t know is that it would break into the physical realm.

It all started with our overnight flight from Sacramento to Charlotte. We did have a very cute puppy Winston on our flight. We bet on who would get to sit next to him, and it turned out to be Spencer. However, he is allergic so he let Mark take his spot and Mark was so excited!

Meanwhile, the dog kept Jordynn and Sofiya up for half the night.

We arrived at Charlotte at 6:30 am and were going to be here for 8 hours.

Psych.

We passed the time by playing Monopoly Deal, posting BeReals (we definitely did not retake them and Alyssa was totally on time), snacking, napping and walking around. We also had a really cool piano player who played cool songs including The Office theme song. He played for 5 hours straight (not the same song).

On our way to Shake Shack, Cheyenne got the divine inspiration to stop and check our flight.

Turns out our flight was now coming in at 5:55 instead of 2:30. We are now missing our connection flight to the Caribbean. Our luggage might already be there but who knows? Six of them might still be in Sacramento according to American Airlines.

This is us informing our families about our situation.

There are also thunderstorms coming in soon, so pray for us. Please and thank you.

Good thing we have Mark Moore as a team leader on this trip and he is taking very good care of us. All of our team members said Amen.

To wrap this up, while we might all be running off two hours of sleep, we are #thrivingandsurviving and we believe this happened for a reason and God is keeping us safe.

XOXO,

Caribbean Team
