The Final Countdown

Mark Davis asked what sort of blog to expect from rippys around the world. For starters, a blog of imperfection and frustration. For example, when the posts come from the iPad you can expect to see rip us around the world. Horray auto correct. You can also expect frustration because I may very well title a post in reference to a catchy song from the band Europe, and even though I failed to link to the live version of Final Countdown, the song is now frustratingly in your head. Hopefully this blog will keep you up to date and mildly amused.
So this is the Final Countdown for Charlotte and I before we leave for Kenya. We are leaving Tuesday night, and are trying to tie up all the loose ends. I have taken it upon myself to prepare for our time in Kenya by making us live off a gas generator, and sleeping in mosquito netting. (Irene may or may not have inspired this training)
So your job is to pray for us and the loose ends, and that we do not fray in the process. So to recap, the blog's not perfect, and neither are it's writers, but hopefully God will use both for His glory.

  1. We're praying for you guys! I'm looking forward to reading about how you see God at work during your time in Kenya! If you have a specific group of prayer warriors getting e-mail updates and praying for you, please add our e-mails to that list: garrett.spitz@gmail.com and spitz.kristen@gmail.com Otherwise, we'll stick to reading the blog and praying for you based on that. Blessings! -G
