So we did what anyone about to go on vacation does... ANNOUNCED it to the WORLD! Hello!
We are going to Romania and we just couldn't keep quiet about it. Ok so we aren't technically going on a "vacation" since we will be travelling across the world to teach and play and work... but its Romania! We just couldn't keep it quiet. And little did we know hearts all over were stirring to do the same thing... GO!
So... I'm heading to my favorite coffee spot, Seth's Coffee, with my favorite GIGs (Girlfriends in God) and I just couldn't stop talking with my girl Karlann (Kar for short) and she says... hey we wanna go too? "Mind if we crash your family mission trip and tag along?" I was speechless... yes it happens, rarely but it happens.
Well yes absolutely I mean who am I to say NO you cant come serve the KING with us!? This family of 4 wants to join our family of 4 and cross the world... really? OK lets see what happens.
Moving on...
Shawn heads to work and does what a man does when he is traveling on a mission looking for support, financially... he starts asking! Then he gets the same thing... Chris, a fellow Engineer, asks "Mind if we join you, my wife and I?" Really? Is this happening? Are we being PUNKED?
So this Mathew Family on a Mission... Just became a team of 10... within 5 days!
WHO does that?
Pray for our team... Shawn (our fearless leader, seriously), Candy (his submissive wife, occasionally) our babies Shelby age 13, Ian age12 as of March 13 (he says that's important info), Sean Hutchison and his wife Karlann and babies Alyx age 12, Elijah age 10 (who is very afraid to fly) and Chris and Amanda Kabat (leaving behind their 2 y/o) who have no idea what the Mathew and Hutchison family have gotten them into! :)
Hang on and Go team ROMANIA!
