Hello friends!
I leave this Saturday for training camp and then have only two weeks left at home after I return. Things are getting crazy!
I would like to ask you all to pray for me! A mishap with government tax filing (I mistyped some numbers) has led to me losing $800 of the money I was planning to spend on vaccinations, international health insurance and a plane ticket to my launch destination. With only $60 to my name and a lot of stuff to buy, I am feeling a bit overwhelmed. Luckily, a lot of people are filling in the gap. I have had gracious church members offer me thier backpacks, tents, etc. I have a lot of the gear I need to leave but there is still a lot I need to get. I will be working up until the day I head for Ireland, but that won’t be enough to cover everything.
This is taking a lot of faith.
Please pray as I struggle to unearth money for the following items:
-International health insurance ($400).
-A plane ticket to my launch site ($? – destination unknown as of yet, so I can’t buy the ticket right now)
-Yellow fever vaccination ($85 – and I might get other vaccinations if I can dig up enough money)
-Heavy duty sandals to wear in the heat ($30-50)
-A few other random necessary items ($60-100)
As I go through this time, I am grateful for what I have and very confident that my needs will be met. God is gracious and powerful.
Thank you for your continued prayer and support, my friends.
-Michele
