What's next?!?!

        "What's next?" 
      
         This is a question I ask myself a lot.  Being in college and having things to do all the time, whether it is homework, hanging out, church, or various other activities.  I am always provided with something to do.  I ask, "What's next?" right after I am done with an activity, so naturally I will ask, "What's next?" throughout the process of getting to Ghana this summer on the missions trip.
 
        The team has already planned some fundraisers, one of which is this weekend(a car-wash).  We also had a letter writing party last week in order to send off support letters to friends and family.  It was a blessing to have postage paid for! I am happy to report that the letters have begun to arrive at their intended destinations, within a week of being mailed, and responses are already being received! PRAISE THE LORD!

       So, "What's next?"..... I have decided the next step is to continue to pray and keep focused on the ultimate task, to serve the people in Ghana and glorify God! I am excited to have a peace about this trip and the funding. I have not once worried about the finances and such, which is a HUGE thanks to the Lord! He will provide, and I firmly believe that if we do our part, to fund-raise, give, and pray for guidance, He will provide the rest.

    Continue to support myself and my team in prayer!

GOD BLESS and LOVE!

Passports, fundraising, and other fun things...

         Meeting with the team going to Ghana every Wednesday night is wonderful.  We have already put into place two car washes and a deal with McAlisters Deli where they will give us a percentage of their proceeds for a certain time period.  These and many more ideas for fundraising are getting me excited to learn, work, and grow along side the people on our team!
        Another aspect of this trip is my expiring passport.  It expires in May, and therefore, it means lots of fun paperwork and extra time spent making this missions trip a go.  I decided to take my own passport photo to avoid an embarrassing photo I will regret 10 years from now when I realize I have to renew my passport, yet again.  I really enjoyed this process, because it gave me something to get all dolled up for on a snow day, and if I might say, it is a pretty good photo.  The comparison photo is shown on this post. :)
       I ask that you will continue to pray for me in this venture, and pray for the team and people of Ghana, that we will be open to what God has planned.

GOD BLESS AND LOVE TO YOU!
