Kenya Update

Well, I have been a bit absent from the blogging world. This is because I have been SUPER busy, but I also haven't really had anything to say. Like I tell my students, "We shouldn't talk just to hear ourselves talk.";) But now I break my silence to tell you that my Lord has been faithful yet again!

My precious friends and family have given $2,000 towards my June Kenya Mission Trip!!!!! WOW! What an overwhelming blessing this is! The miracle is that last week I was told that I would need to have my flight paid for by April 14th. This cost is the majority of my trip expenses: $1,400. Most of the people on my trip looked a bit worried because well, this is a LOT of money. We all know that Jesus will provide the money for each person to pay for their plane flight, but what a relief that mine is already covered. Covered by so many of you generous people! The thing that really gets me about this financial support is that it comes from hearts that were open to the Spirit's leading and then were obedient to the call He gave. What an honor to have people in my life that obey the Lord and see my heart for this AMAZING continent!  

I am a blessed by you.
