in less than 3 weeks (hopefully), i will be on a plane to east asia. surprisingly, closing out the school year with my 3rd graders last month, didn't really finalize this deal for me. and though finishing up my role at sandals (my church) was tough, much of me still could not grasp the idea of leaving for a year. it was not until today, as i was on the phone endlessly cancelling my car insurance, terminating my cell phone, deferring my school loans, packing the first of my suitcases, packing up stuff to give to the salvation army, that the reality hit me. i am a great, big ball of mixed emotions: excited, anxious, fearful, sad, eager, joyful, nervous, humbled.
please pray for me as you think of me. i am still in the process of raising all of my support. i am trusting God to provide my entire expense and support needs within the next 3 weeks. this is a challenge, but i know that God has called me to east asia, and He's given me a real desire to be used in students' lives over there this coming year. somehow, i know if He's given me that desire to go, He will provide for my financial needs so that i can go.
thank you for sharing in this journey with me.
because He first loved me!

You are busy! I somehow ended up at staff training last night...and I was thinking of you. I was visiting my grandparents in Fort Collins, and they had a couple who are on staff stying with them. They wanted us to come to the main nightly session. It was so funny that I ended up there. Anyhow, just wanted to let you know that I am praying for you and thinking of you!
