So it's been way to long since my last update but things have been crazy this last month and will continue to be until I leave. The next few posts will probably be a little shorter but I hope to write them on a more regular basis. For now, here is what's going on.
I spent a week in July outside of Minneapolis at an orientation for my missions organization, Janz Team/Teach Beyond. It was wonderful to meet people who will be in Germany with me and to hear the heart of the organization. I entered the time of training with some doubts and fears about if this was really right for me and left feeling absolutely sure, once again, that BFA is exactly where God wants me. I am more excited than ever to get over there and begin transitioning and settling into this new phase of life.
Right now I inTexas spending some time with my family. This summer I am going to be able to see my entire family on both sides which really is a blessing in and of its self. It's hot (really hot, not just Ohio hot) down here but I love sitting around the pool, going for walks, and visiting old family friends. I really am thankful for this time.
When I'm not traveling, though it feels like I always am, I have been able to work. This is also a huge blessing as I wasn't sure I would be able to get many hours because of my crazy schedule. I'm also donig paperwork and preparing for the big move which happens in less than a month! I can't believe how quickly this time is passing.
Finally, I am at 40% of support! Once I get to 80% I can buy my plane tickets and set the official date for when I am leaving. I have been blown away at the support that has come in in the past two weeks. I am appreciate and am so incredibly blessed by how much you are all willing to give and come alongside me as I embark on this mission. God is providing in ways I never expected. Continued prayer for monthly support would be wonderful also. While I am SO happy to be at 40%, I am still in need to people who are willing to support me on a monthly/yearly basis.
That's all I have for now. Peace!
