Oh man! I'm so excited to let you in on a secret. . . okay, not a secret at all but big news for sure:

My WORLD RACE Training Camp is in 2 DAYS!!! Wooo Hoooo!!

Oh, I couldn't be more excited/nervous! Rushing around to find my last minute needs for packing and preparing everyone and everything for my week away has been extremely time consuming this week but totally worth it of course in the end! Thank you to all who have had to express great patience with my crazy schedule!!

My Mid-week Mission this week is all about the rest of my needed WR GEAR!!!

This is the list of my last few needs, big and small: I only have a few weeks left for fundraising before I leave so I want to go ahead and focus on my gear FIRST (While I'm away at TC, you all can just surprise me and make me oh so ready for my Race with gear galore!!). When I return from Camp, I will then list my specific financial needs, which I have been and will be praying over this coming week of course, that the Lord would prepare your hearts for those #s (I'm personally not a big fan of #s but we will all press on! Ha!).

Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your perseverance in giving and in prayer support! I officially have 2 people on my Prayer Team. Robin Hiers and Dr. Mark Rathel. Please be praying over your sincere part in this, my friends/family/strangers 🙂 If you would like to join the ranks in specific prayer while I"m on mission, don't hesitate in letting me know.

Okay, here's the list:

Sleeping bag liner
Netbook
Digital Camera
Stuff Sacks
Headphone splitter
External Hard-drive
Electrical Outlet converter
Sarong
Earbuds
Stationary for letters home
Sporks
Rain Jacket
Fleece
Pro-biotics
ENO Hammock
Jump drive
Travel Locks
Small portable Speakers
TOMS
Journal (Leather bound w/insert for pen/pencil preferable)

I really think that is everything! Haha! If not, I'll let you know but think of this list as final until then! I have added on some of the smaller purchases for the sake of those who would like to help but can't do as much as others . . .it's all needed 🙂 

Is there anything on this list that either you already own and can pass on for good use or that you are inclined to purchase for this humble missionary? Comment below or send me an e-mail/FB message!!! I'll check who has donated funds for what when I return from camp . . .so excited to see what all God will provide in the next week! Do you think He could provide it all through you? I do!!! Ahhh! I can't wait! Talk with you soon! Many, many blessings!

LOVED.,
Lauren!<><+
