Here We Go

Piles upon piles towered, rising up from our ping pong table. Supplies that I figured would never fit into a 65 liter back pack began to neatly come together and roll into place. I prayed that everything I needed, I had, and whatever I forgot God didn’t think I need that badly. I sighed at this insane task that laid before me. I breathed and mindlessly moved my arms to pack my home and belongings, practicing for the nine months to come. My next adventure seemed to sneak up on me and voila training camp was right around the corner. All I could do was laugh at myself and think about how crazy I am. Nine months, a backpack, a tent, some clothes, other necessities and a family who I don’t yet know. 

Hey Everyone! Training camp is upon us. No seriously, it’s in two days. AH! The next day and a half, starting today, will be spent in a car as my family and I road trip down to Gainesville, Georgia. That’s approximately 20 and a half hours non stop, if you wanted to know. Let the adventures begin. I have so many mixed feelings about camp. I am nervous but excited. Scared but expectant. Worried but trusting God. He’s gotten me this far. He’ll help me to the finish line. I can’t wait to meet my team!

Also, I am 77.37% of the way to being fully funded! God is so good! Thank you so much for your support. I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for you. I still can’t do this without you though. I need prayer cover. I have a huge prayer calendar for pretty much all the days I will be gone. Thursdays and every other Tuesday are taken up. I want to put your name on the calendar. Please prayerfully consider taking a day of the week or one day every month to pray for me. I really want to know that each and every day I am gone I have prayer cover. There is so much power in prayer. I’ve seen it in my own life and God, whether you believe it or not, hears your prayers! Comment down below what day of the week or month you would be willing to commit to praying for me. I will get your name up on the calendar. 

Along with praying for my over all trip I need prayer for the next two weeks. Training Camp, I’ve heard is one of the hardest parts of this journey. It’s emotionally draining, spiritually uplifting yet straining, and mentally preparing and pushing. I am ready but I’m nervous. I know it’s going to be good and helpful. I know I will need to be honest with myself and vulnerable with others. Yes, It’s gonna be really hard. Yes, I am scared to open up to people I don’t know. Yet, there’s a peace I have knowing that God is completely a head of me guiding my path to His perfect plan. He’s already 10 steps ahead of me which I am grateful for. 

Also, I still have t-shirts! If you are interested DM me and I’ll get them to you. Every penny helps. They are $12 each.

I cannot wait to tell you all about what God does at training camp. He’s got big plans. I am excited to meet my team and become a family over the ten days we have. Then I’m back for the last week in July and August. 

Here We Go! Have a blessed week.

Matthew 28:19-20

“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surly I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

 John 15:4

“Abide in me, and I in you. As a branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, niether can you, unless you abide in me.”

John 13:35

“By this everyone will know you are my disciples, if you love one another.”
