I should have done this a few weeks ago, but I am just so indecisive. BIG NEWS PEOPLE! My route has changed. I received the devastating email stating there would no longer be a July route 5. At first I did not believe it. I thought there was no way, but sure enough I logged into my messenger on facebook to find my whole team share their grief and finalize the news; July route was officially canceled. It literally took me until now to really believe I was leaving in September instead of July. In reality, due to funds and lack of physically motivation, September is a much better suited route for me. I am excited for the new route country line ups. PLUS my squad is pretty awesome. 😉
Here they are! I will get more detailed the more I find out.
1. Bulgaria
2. Romania
3. Albania
4. Kosova
5. Mozambique
6. Swaziland
7. South Africa
8. Colombia
9. Ecuador
10. Peru
11. Bolivia
Another thing I need you all to be caught up on is the status of my funding. I had my first fundraiser a few weeks ago. It was an amazing success. Thank you everyone who showed up and those who didn’t; thank you for your encouragement and prayers. $1300 was raised. AMAZING. thank you Jesus.!
Last thing I wanted to share… One of my biggest fears is relying on people. Throughout this whole fundraising process God has truly shown me that he not only puts people in my life that I can count on, but also that even though people are obediently and generously giving the funds, showing up to the events, and encouraging me greatly, it is truly him who holds the providing strings. Though I know this truth, sometimes my faith gets a little shaken. I had a realization one morning on my way to work; I was impatiently sitting in my manual roll down window, overheated, smelly car, frustrated and angry because I felt like my fundraising was going absolutely nowhere. I knew God was stirring up a provision but, all I could see in my head was that stupid green bar NOT MOVING. I started to get anxiety and felt irritation and defeat take over. That’s when I heard God clear as day say, “Be still.” I promptly shut off the radio and sat there waiting for him. All of a sudden in the midst of my half hearted prayer he showed me a diagram.. 200 people 100$ each. THAT IS IT! 20,000$ Any fundraiser nights or restaurants or thing I sell will add up. I asked God to please confirm what he told me and that night 3 people had donated 100$. MIND…BLOWN. People’s heart will move! Because God is ALWAYS faithful and he told me he will provide. Guys, it’s going to happen. THIS IS HIS WILL FOR MY LIFE. I just know it. I really need donors to pray and ask God if they should be giving. I need way more funds because as of right now I am only at about 3,000$ out of 16,227$. It’s going to be good and sooooo many glory stories are going to come out of it. To God be the glory.
Also if you could please just keep my squad in prayer as well with finances and struggles I know that we would ALL appreciate that greatly. I love you all who read this and thank you. I can’t do it with out you.
