One week until arrival.

Thanks for praying.  It is now 7:05 am PDT, Friday, here in Edmonds, but 10:05 pm Friday night in Beijing. One week from today at this time, Steve, Don and I should be touching down at the Beijing Capital Airport. We will meet Dayoung, our team leader, who will have arrived from Seoul a few hours earlier, after we get through customs and receive our 72 hour visa for China.

Three days ago we learned that we have been awarded visas for N. Korea. This was a long process that included much paperwork and contacts with the Swedish consulate at the UN building in NY.

Packing is basically done, tickets purchased, visas now awarded, and much prayer already sent to our Father. This Sunday at CCF, Don and I will be invited to come forward for prayer at the end of the morning worship service, following a short video clip of the Pyongyang University of Science and Technology, PUST.

Please pray for health, favor with officials upon arrival, arrival of luggage, miraculous healing of jetlag (we begin ministry with some Christian businessmen on Saturday morning), and hearts ready to serve in whatever way God calls.
Thanks,
Rich
