More on My Mission Trip
I'm so excited to inform you all that the money keeps coming in. :) We have over half the money needed. God is so good. I want to thank all of yall for your prayers and support! Here are some new things going on:
Every Monday, starting at 7 am and going til the bell rings for school, I am attending devotions with the other thirty people going to the Dominican Republic. It's been a great time for each of us to reflect on what God is doing to prepare us for our trip. Also, weekly we study and go through chapters in a workbook called Short-Term Missions by Tim Dearborn. So far we have discussed that our God is a God of missions. I want to share this quote with you all, "The church of God does not have a mission in the world. The God of mission has a church in the world!" How true! :)
Another amazing thing that has happened recently was on February 12. Every Friday morning, my school has chapel. We all get together and worship and listen to a speaker. That morning the mission team was called to the front. Faculty, staff, and members of Student Council all gathered around us and the whole entire school prayed for us and our trip. It was pretty powerful.
Special Prayer requests for this week:
**All papers will be notarized without problems
**There will be no conflicts in buying everyone's plane tickets.
** I will be able to turn all paperwork in on time
** Our Monday morning devotions will continue to be impacting.
** The money will CONTINUE to come in :)
