Update for Denise and Troy (by Cathy)

Hello friends and family of Denise, Troy, and Dylan!
This is Cathy, a long-time friend of Denise's.  I wanted to let everyone know they made it all the way to Kunming! They almost missed their flight through Chicago, it was delayed out of Birmingham. They ran up to the gate at the final boarding call.  Denise said the poor gate agent must have known why they were traveling, and said "it's okay" in the most assuring way.  They are very excited, it's been a long and exhausting journey.  China is blocking access to blogs and Facebook (hello Communism) so Denise asked me to post an update for her and Troy.  They are scheduled to get Annalee today at 2:00 pm.  They are so excited, but also nervous so please continue to pray for them. 

Denise said that Kunming is beautiful and people are nice...food is crazy unusual, and hopes to lose a few lbs while she's there (that's Denise for you!)...lots of turtle, frog, jellyfish sandwiches on the menu!

Signing off now for Denise and Troy. 

Blessings,
Cathy (Hood) Slayton
