getting ready to leave

It's the night before we leave for the Czech Republic and we are getting very excited! We feel a little bit anxious due everything that still needs to be done... we've barely started packing. We feel very confident that it's in God's plan for us to be going on this trip. We were having a hard time raising all the funds we needed, but about a month ago we were blessed with an anonymous check for $2,000! The very next day we received another anonymous check for $1,000 and people have continued to give generously. We feel very blessed for everyone who has supported us. Thank you.
A few prayer requests are:

1. Unity among our team
2. That God would prepare the hearts of the Czech people to both receive us as loud and outgoing Americans, (contrasting their reserved Czech culture) and receive his word.
3. Safe travel across the Atlantic, and that we would catch our 5 hour train ride to Zlin (we only have 2 hrs!)
4. That God would give us energy to get through nearly 3 weeks of waking up at 7 and going to bed after midnight.
5. Any troubles that might persist due to the language barrier.
