2 1/2 weeks!
(...Just because I love pictures!)
That's right...17 days and I will be on a plane to Liberia! With life starting to slow down as finals are coming to an end, this trip is becoming more and more real. My heart gets a little...hmmm...I really don't even know how to describe it--antsy? nervous? anxious? excited? I think those words all combined describes the little jump in my heart that happens when I truly think about being on Liberian ground. I don't really know what to expect...it's the unknown that makes my mind and heart a mess, but a good mess :)
God has provided every step of this trip thus far, and with these final weeks rapidly approaching the only thing lacking is the remaining funds. I personally have $1,273 left to raise to fulfill my financial commitment. As a whole our team has raised about 70% of our total costs with the remaining 30% being about $15,000. We need this raised by Dec. 19th! Jehova Jirah--my Provider. I really don't have big doubts about this being accomplished. We've seen God come through in crazy (to me, not God) big ways thus far; to doubt now just seems kind of silly when I think about it.
If you're interested in contributing to this mission, please feel free to do so ;-)
