Living in Light of eternity :)


Here we go again. The day before I leave for Kenya, Africa :) I am so excited to see what God is going to do. He has worked in my life leading up to this point in amazing ways. I never really understood when people would say that everything is part of God’s plan but now heading out into another world I can see that every little detail God had and still has in his hands. Everything I have done and learned up to this point in my life is going to allow me to do great things for the Lord. If it was not for God’s hand in my life I would not be in the place I am today. I am so thankful that God chose me to be His child and that I can serve Him to further the kingdom of God. I want to always be living in Light of Eternity. I will be traveling with a friend whose name is Karissa Young. I am so thankful that God brought her into my life and she has been a great friend to me and I am beyond excited to travel with her.  I am so thrilled to head out and allow God to use me in whatever way He wants. I have a few specific prayer request:  
  1. I will be taking my 1st malaria pill today and I would just ask that you would pray that I will not experience any of the major side effects with it.  ( I will be taking one pill every day while I am there and 7 days after I return)
  2. Karissa and I will have the opportunity to go into the public schools and share our testimonies. We might possibly be speaking to 1800 children at one point. This is a little nerve racking because if you know me I am not a fan of speaking in front of people. But I know that God has prepared me for this and I know that He will be with me the whole time :) 
  3. We will be running a 5 day VBS the first week we are there (May 21-25). Pray we will be able to do this well and that the kids will enjoy it. (50-60 kids with only 2 leaders)
We are so committed to honoring God and we are ready to go and serve in Webuye, Kenya for God’s glory. Please be praying as we will be in a completely new place and culture. God is at work and I am honored to be able to be a part of His work. 

TO GOD BE THE GLORY.
