Hello there friends.
First, I want to thank you. Thank you for encouraging me to go after the things God placed in my heart. They brought me to this place halfway around the world and I got to see God in so many ways. Thank you to those of you who supported me financially. You are the reason I can stay on the field for the whole year. You help provide my lodging and food so I can serve and share Jesus’ love with others. Thank you to those of you who pray for me. We encounter so many situations where we’ve seen God provide or have a divine encounter. Even when things get tough, I know I have a prayer team behind me. I wouldn’t want to see what this year would look like without your prayers.
Secondly, I want to apologize. I haven’t fully kept up my end of the bargain. I have slacked on blogging this past month and in doing so, I’ve withheld stories that you are a part of. It’s been a rough month for me, but that’s no excuse to hold out on you and not let you know what my team and I are doing. Even though things were hard, there were so many good things that I should have (and still will) share with you. I also stole your ability to pray for me fully and specifically. I am sorry and I will do all I can to keep you more involved.
Lastly, I just passed the halfway mark of this race. I would like to check in with you to see how I’m doing. Is there something I can be doing to better support you as my supporters? Is there things you would like to see specifically (pictures, blogs, other things, etc)? Please let me know by messaging me or commenting.
I love you guys so much! Thank you!
Allison
P. S. This month we are doing ATL (Ask the Lord)! This means we will have no assigned ministry partner and can do and go wherever we feel the Lord is directing us as a team. We will be gathering to pray and make plans in about 10 hours. So if you see this in that time, please pray for my team for direction, clarity, and unity.
