projects!
Aloha!
In these stages of preparation, I am in awe! I am in ultimate awe of how God has it all worked out! I am humbled to ask people for help! But I am so rewarded in knowing I am acting out of obedience. Seeking God's face in this mission is a crazy place! His supernatural presence is felt in silent reflection. It has been difficult to slow my life down to take time to reflect and pray. But when I do carve out time to put away the books that need to be studied, the papers that need to be written, the lesson plans that need to be prepared, the people that need to be called/emailed/faxed/text messaged!!!!, and the things that have to be done! God is so faithful! I am constantly reminded that He is making a way... no matter how fuzzy or unclear that way is... I am struggling but it is all for his glory. He does all things well; ALL THINGS!
....I wanted to give you a better idea of what I will be doing... here is a more precise link that describes the activities I will be doing and where I will be serving... check it out!!!

The Mission
God has been so good to me! He has shown me that I can be used for the good of His kingdom. With that, He has called me on my first big mission. I leave in two months for a country just north of South Africa. I will be spending my time at a Youth With a Mission base in the city of Windhoek. I will be taking care of orphans and abandoned children. I will be assisting in all the daily activities and running various children's programs. When night comes I will be doing outreach into the city; getting to know the people of the streets. God is so good! I know He will provide a way for me to provide aid to the people of Africa. I am so blessed and so touched that God will be using me! If you can, please consider praying for me and this mission! If you feel led to give financial support as well, please see the details below.
How very important financial support is, I know how important prayer is! I am so encouraged by the way God can move through prayers by people who are willing to take their time to keep me in their hearts. Please be sure to pray for safety, good health, and financial support; I must raise 4,000 dollars by June 9th. I am so blessed to be able to witness this process! If you have any questions about this mission, please feel free to email me! If you would like to check out the orphanage in which I will be serving at, please check out their website; beautifulkidz.org. I am so thankful for your support and prayers! God bless!
