We've arrived in the US!!

Hi everyone - we arrived in the US on our flight from Heathrow on time however due to an amazing amount of security we missed our connection at Denver and had to wait until 9.05pm US time to catch the next flight into Albuquerque.

After a very short flight we arrived to be whisked to the comfort of our first night's stay in a nearby hotel. I (Alice) am writing this blog in our room prior to meeting the team at 9.00am US time when we will be picking up our hire cars and heading west! We already had opportunities to speak to people on our journey including a lovely lady at Denver airport, a pueblo indian, who gave me her earrings! Dave and I were sharing with her about the team and what we were planning to do.

Today we are going to meet Eleanor McKinney at the Flying J here in Albuquerque. Her and her husband Charles have pastored churches for over 60 years! Then we will set off for Gallup which is our ultimate destination.

Anyway we are all safe and well despite a very tiring 24 hour day yesterday. We are seven hours behind you in the UK.

Keep praying for us!

Great to hear that they have let you in. Have checked out Google Earth and think I have seen where you will be in Cornfields. Third rock alongside the river, with a green arrow pointing to it. Gallup looks big, with an American Football pitch but no sign of a swimming pool. Real John Ford country.

Sleep well, then speak well and send back some photos real soon now.

God bless.

We look forward to hearing about all the amazing stuff God is going to be using you in-especailly to hear of all the folks you will lead into the kingdom.
Walk in the anointing that you guys have as individuals and as a team
