Welcome to Charlotte Eagles: Brazil '07!!!

I hope that you're ready for the best two weeks of your life... no I'm serious, the absolute best. Some of you have travelled quite extensively, others have even been on and Eagles' tour before, and a few of you have never been out of the country. But that is the beauty of tour... that within three days of meeting someone they'll be your new best friend and you'll be chillin' in Rio, playing futsal with some little Brazilian kids. Begin to prepare yourself now to allow God to work in you and use you for His glory. Sarah and I aren't leading these tours just because it's fun, but also because we've experienced first hand the way that tour can literally change your life.

On a more practical note, we want this blog to be a place for us to easily communicate things with you and pass information along to you. So, in the near future you can expect to see items such as the visa application, packing list and itinerary/schedule added to the document list. In the mean time be dilligent about raising your support. If you have people you have promised to give and they can cut you a check, have them do it now rather than later. We have already put a deposit down on our airline tickets and will be needing money in your accounts to make further purchases in the neer future.

This blog also has the potential to be a place for y'all to get to know each other (a little bit) in the time leading up to tour. So take advantage of it.

Thanks again for your commitment to God's kingdom and I am looking forward to being a part of something special with you.
