tanzania

Africa is amazing and beautiful. IIt is still hard to believe I am here and it has been over a week. This is my first time being able to go online only because I did not want to pay for it but we found some free wifi at our campsite. We just finished our last day of ministry and we are now camping for our safari. I cannot even begin to explain how much has happened and how much god has done this last week and a half. So I will wait until I get home. We leave Thursday and will be home Friday please still keep us in our prayers. Love!

The Time Is NOW!!

So today is the day! Today we board a plane that will take us on a journey of a lifetime!

I'm already full of emotions, today will probably be a very long exhausting draining day. But I know what awaits me in Tanzania will make up for it!

Today I had to say goodbye to my roommate who I love dearly, she's moving out before I get back so the last couple nights we were pretty much inseparable trying to cherish our last few nights together. She's done so much for me, especially the last few days. I don't know how I would have survived this week without her. I love her so much and will miss her dearly. It was a lot harder saying goodbye to her this morning than I realized, even though I know I will still see her, it's just hard.

So that made me emotional, and all morning I just feel like I'm in a race for time. I just now finished the last of the homework I needed to complete but now I have just a couple of hours to finish packing, clean my car, shower, run last minute errands and head down to church. I almost cannot wait to get on that first 10 hour plane ride, I'm pretty sure I could sleep the whole time without need of a sleeping pill. And I'm just a bundle of nerves. It was about a couple of hours ago that butterflies decided to appear in my stomach and have not stopped fluttering around.

God is good. He will do amazing things on this trip. I will come back changed.

Please remember me and my team in your prayers.

Check this every now and then, if by some chance I can get online I will be sure to update!

Thanks for joining me on this long process to get to this point!

Love!

It's Almost Time!!

So I just realized I never updated since something huge happened! I RAISED ALL MY SUPPORT!!! Plus some too! God really showed up in this process, even though I was doubting that this large amount of money would actually be raised, God went BAM! and raised it all! He's awesome!

So in just a few short days I will be boarding the plane that will take me on the greatest adventure I can ever have. I'm excited, nervous, excited, stressed, excited, scared, excited, happy, excited, blessed and did I mention that I'm ridiculously excited?!?!?! So crazy!

Prayer Requests:

*I'm having some issues in regards to my nut allergy and being able to take my medicine with me. I may need a doctor's note and even though I got one from school, it may not be sufficient. So just that we can work everything out with that.

*That darn volcano is acting up again! Please pray that we'll be able to get on the plane to Amsterdam. We just need the skies to clear up for us!

*For the rest of my team to raise their support

*For my 3 days of lots of schoolwork and finals! Thursday will be here very quickly!

Love you guys!
