Here We Go!

Well we are getting packed up and ready to take off early in morning. We are very excited. Our travel plans have us leaving Lewiston at 5:30am to Salt Lake city. We then take off to Chicago where we will meet up with the rest of our team who we will be spending the next 14 days with. Our plan is to leave Chicago and land in London, where we then fly into Cairo, Egypt. Our total travel time with stops will take us about 27 hours if my math is correct, but i guess i'll find out for sure soon. We will be 10 hours ahead of you - so imagine when you wake up I will have already prayed for your entire day as i've lived out mine. Okay, well I'll fill you in with more tomorrow.

Love and Blessings,
Jeph (and Jaclyn)

Israel Update

6 Days and Counting!

We are 6 days away from leaving Idaho and entering into the land of Cairo, Egypt. I just wanted to take a moment and give you some information about our trip and let you know who will be traveling with us from our area.

Our team of 7 from this area includes: Jeph & Jaclyn Chavez, Antonio Smith, Eldon & Marilyn Riggle, Mercedes Turner and Rochelle Lang. We will be joining about 20 others from around the nation when we arrive in Cairo.

It is my hope to be able to keep you updated with our daily adventures and prayer requests. I also want to hear back from any of you that may be getting something from the Holy Spirit. I say hope because I've been told we have access to the internet but I'm not sure what that all entails - so we'll just have to wait and see.

Below is our intineray and some prayer requests. I'll be in touch soon with more. Blessings, Jeph
