Final Preparations

Preparing for a year away is an exciting adventure, but wow, it's also a challenge! The "to-do" and "to-buy" lists seem unending, but I believe everything will get done in time. (The hardest part might be packing a year's supply of everything in 1-2 suitcases. I guess the key word is "simplicity," right?!) Little by little, I'm feeling more ready for take-off.

I thank God for a wonderful summer. He allowed me to see many dear friends and most of my extended family in Texas and Michigan. I am blessed to have so many loving, supportive, prayerful, and caring individuals in my life. Thank you for spending time to learn about the calling God has placed on my heart to go to Cote d'Ivoire. Sharing this journey and partnering with you in this ministry is a gift from God. 

If you would like to partner with me financially and haven't yet, please do! You're giving to God's work in Cote d'Ivoire by helping me get there. 75% of my financial needs are in... so just 25% to go. Click here to give online with a credit or debit card. If you'd prefer to write a check, reply to this email and I'll send you info about how to do that.

Once I'm over in Cote d'Ivoire -- which will be September 13th, Lord-willing -- I'll be updating my blog on a regular basis with stories and photos. Be sure to follow along!

Au revoir for now!
