36 Hours

May 11, 2017 by Stephen and Ginger Jordan

Last Monday, at 12:30 a.m., our family began the 36-hour journey from Manila, Philippines, to Byron Center, Michigan.  How did we pass the 36 hours?  How did we survive the three flights and 11 hours of layovers?  Let us answer these questions through pictures.

Packed and ready to go. 12 suitcases and 11 carry-on bags!

We want to thank you all for your prayers during these 36 hours and we appreciate your prayers as we are now back in the States and getting settled into the Grand Rapids area.

Probably not the wisest thing, but we have hit the ground running.  This week we have been busy with getting settled in, Jonathan beginning baseball practice, and the girls getting ready for a youth banquet this weekend.

Next week, we begin our schedule of sharing in churches.  Lord willing, we will see most of you during the next 6 months.  As of this time, we have already scheduled 22 meetings and will probably add a few more before it is all done.  If you don’t see us coming to your church, please let us know and we might still be able to squeeze you in.  Below is our schedule and when we will be in your area.  Thank you again, for your partnership through prayers, support, and words of encouragement.
