I have to admit it, I stink at remembering to blog! But I know that it is time to step it up! We are now only 2 months away from Africa! I can hardly believe it. Things are falling into place. Our garage sale raised 1100 toward my trip (over 4000 in all!). I am so relieved, but have a ways to go. I just have faith that God will see this fundraising through. I wish I did not have to focus on money, it feels like such a waste of precious time and energy that could be spent focusing on the real needs and on the long term program to help the women and orphans! But I know that it will all happen in HIS time, not mine. I know HE will see this through!!!! Please keep me in prayer and ask that God will lead those who He has planted with wealth to come forward and share their blessings with our mission group.

I am so grateful for all of the prayers and the donations and support from friends and family. I just want to give my heart and soul to this mission as I reach the people of Africa for Christ. I will try my best to blog to keep you up to date on the trip. I want to remember every moment, every feeling, every smell, every face, every experience surrounding this adventure. Thank you for being a part of it!

The picture above is of Deb and I at the fundraising garage sale we held a couple of weeks ago! The biggest blessing that I can share with you is that there was a 100% chance of rain that morning, and the rain was not supposed to clear until 8 pm. Our sale was outside, with no tent. We did not have one single drop hit our sale the entire day! Truly God's blessing upon us. We found out that night that the people of Africa held an all night prayer vigil over our fundraiser (as it is night in Africa during our day) that God would BLESS us! Our God is so AMAZING and Faithful in answering our prayers.
Until I have more to report...
