Friday evening, my packet arrived in the mail…my visa was APPROVED! Then began the whirlwind of emotions and To-Do lists, including tell all of you my plans!
I bought my plane ticket this morning. I will be flying out of BWI on Tuesday, December 18th at the crack of dawn…yeah, I know that’s before Christmas and while it would be nice to celebrate with my family, I need to get down and continue what I feel like God has planned for me for this season.
So you can pray, A LOT! I have a lot to get ready before I actually leave. Being able to take everything that I want/need is causing me the most worry right now. Thankfully, the ticket that I purchased allows me to pack my bags at 70 pounds instead of 50!!! I better start working out my arms to handle three suitcases and a carry-on! Mostly, pray for wisdom, peace, and safety! I just have to remember to trust that God is in control and that He has a plan!
Thank you to everyone for your words of encouragement. I am truly blessed by the family and friends that God has placed in my life. I appreciate the time and money that you all have invested into my life to help the lives of so many in the DR. You may not be the one traveling to a foreign country, but you are a vital part of this mission, so thank you!
Oh, and if it’s not too much to ask, pray for SNOW! I know a lot of you hate the white stuff, but I would be happy with a few inches and then you can have no snow the rest of the winter. ;) (Doesn’t hurt to ask lol!)
