Bathed

Getting washed up every day on an OB tour is a big deal. 30 teens and the group of adult leaders are usually sweating like crazy most hours everyday they are on tour. So getting clean each day is a pretty high priority –even if it is more for the people with whom we coming in contact than for the team itself!

But the concept of “bathing” that runs through my mind today is of a completely different thought process. In the last week, I have received word that as we had seven adult leaders drive two school buses from Indiana to CA, we have been bathed in prayer—maybe more than at any time in the 35 year history of Operation Barnabas.

So what happened? Absolutely nothing. No breakdowns, no slow downs, no accidents, no illness. Nothing. Two buses and over 2200 miles each with six drivers. And they made it in 48 and a half hours. THAT is a HUGE answer to prayer. I should not be surprised with as many people praying for this as there were. But I always am!

So now I am starting another prayer campaign and I am asking for your help: we have three teams traveling from CA to Ohio the rest of this summer and we need all of the things to happen just like they did on the trip out.

Will you please join me and commit to praying for these teams, leaders, and their experiences? Post a comment, e-mail me, text me. Let me know you are praying and I will pass it on.

Many thanks! Next time I make a request for OB travel—it might be for a donation so that we can afford the diesel fuel to get to Ohio… ;-)
