T minus 7 days!
So close.
In 7 days, I’ll be on a plane, headed halfway around the world.
I am an intense mixture of excited and scared. I’m already at my leader training camp & have been learning alot more information about this trip I’ll be leading! We will be spending the majority of our time in Eburru, which is a city that is on the side of an inactive volcano! It will be cold (crazy, I know!) and we will have limited use of any electricity or water. Shirley, my coleader, and I will be working with a local pastor named Pastor Steve and he is setting up lots of great ministry opportunities! We will be helping with on orphan feeding program and doing lots of teaching in the local schools and churches. I cannot wait!
Even in the midst of all this, though, my heart is most burdened for the 14 participants on my team. These young adults will be experiencing God in ways they’ve never known and I get to join them in this process!
So…I covet your prayers. Even if you aren’t a regular “pray-er”, will you please ask God to work in and through me in this next month? I will succeed only if I’m in the will of God. I don’t always discern that clearly & I can use all the prayers you have to offer.
I am so excited to keep you updated! If you’d like, you can sign up for updates on my team blog page by visiting here* and adding your email address. Much like this blog, you will get an email after we post a blog. You’ll be reading them at least 1x per week and you’ll hear all about our trip!
Thank you for your prayers. I am deeply grateful.
