Here we go! I officially leave the country in 7 days and I can hardly wait! It has been about 16 months since I was on the mission field and I have never stepped foot in Latin America so I am pretty stoked. I have heard stories about these kids and this mission for so long that I can’t wait to be a part of it and see what God does. I can’t wait for a week to get away serve and meet with my Savior. Plus it is a week off of the real world and let’s be honest, we all like that at times right?
I’m thankful and blessed to say that God has faithfully provided above and beyond what I needed for the trip. So THANK YOU for all of you who have prayed, continue to pray and offered financial assistance for this trip. While I’m fully funded there are still team members in need. If you would like to help, that would be amazing! You can still give by going to: http://www.notforgotten.org – Click Donate and then select Work Team Fund.
I intend to post a blog upon return, but for now I will leave you with a few prayer requests:
- Preparation, rest and protection of hearts and minds prior to leaving
- Unity amongst the team as many of us have never met and we are coming from different states
- For the boys and the time we have with them – that they would see and feel the love of Christ from our team. Pray that they would know Christ and grow in their relationships with Him.
- Safe travels
- Anything else the Lord lays on your heart…
Thanks, your prayers are vital! I look forward to sharing stories and pics upon return!
