6 days!

I leave in 6 days! It's coming so fast and I still have so much to do before I go. We just moved into our new house in Huntsville, from which I moved things out of and to my parents for the summer to make room for my sub-leaser. Among other things I get my immunizations tomorrow morning...yay shots! Thankfully it's only one quick one, although I really have no problem getting shots at all. It's hard keeping track of everything I need to do or get, so I've taken to making to do lists and marking things off as I go, hoping that I have written down everything I need to do on the list itself. I'm so ready to be on that plane!

Also, I made my support budget! I have the best supporters for this trip ever! Thank you so much to everyone who has given. I am so excited that you want to be a part of what the Lord is going to be doing in Ireland this summer through my team and me, and so pleased for the blessings you will receive for giving as well.

It never ceases to astound and amaze me when God moves. I was talking with a friend the other day, and it occurred to me that most of the time blessings come from the most unexpected places. What we expect from a worldly standpoint is not, but God blesses us from what we instead see as unacceptable or consider as the unexpected. The support that I have received both prayfully and financially is amazing to me. What the world sees as unacceptable, God makes acceptable! I know that there is no limit to what God is capable of doing. What is supernatural to us is natural, or normal for Him. Yet, I never want to get to the point where I am not amazed when God does something extraordinary! I know that He is capable of anything and everything, but when He moves, I want to be in awe of Him. That has been one of the best things in raising support for this trip, and I expect, one of the great things I will have a chance to witness over the summer.

Thanks again to all my supporters! God Bless!

Almost There!

17 days and counting! With school over now missions preparations are in full swing - creating packing lists, checking the packing list, getting immunizations, and of course...still raising support! The deadline is May 15th (stretching it til May 18th) for raising the full amount and I still need about $1800. However, I did get my plane ticket! It feels almost real now, although it won't officially sink in until I'm on my way to the airport I suppose. Please continue to pray over this! Your support is very much appreciated!
