OK, so I pretty much explained in my "about me portion" all about me and why I feel like God has really given me a heart for mission work and the nations. So I thought as a follow up blog I would let you know how stinking excited I am!
I just sent out my support letter yesterday and I won't lie I wasn't really expecting much feedback on it. But so far people are already calling me and e-mailing me about the trip. It's been so encouraging to know that people are interested in what God's doing in my life and how he's working through me to reach others : ) It's just gotten me even more fired up then I already was!
Furthermore, the people going on the race with me have a facebook group that we've all been communicating through. It's so cool to get to facebook creep and see how much I have in common with so many of them! Most importantly though, all of them are so absolutely on fire for God and I can't wait to spend 11 months with a group of people just as passionate about spreading the Word of God as I am!
My main problem so far has just been stress : / I've been stressing about the ammount of money I have to raise along with how I'm going to do it. This is the first mission trip I've ever been on and I've never really been one to fundraise. When I was in elementary my parents would usually buy the minumum of stuff I had to sell for fundraisers and that was the end of it. So right now I'm really just gonna ask y'all to be praying for me to just chill out! Obviously God wants me on this trip and he will provide no matter mow much or less I worry. Anywho I have like 5 tests coming up this week that I should be studying for so I' better get to studying! Just wanted to let you guys know how excited I am and how much I really do appreciate the support : )
