Next Step.

81 days that I have been in Germany.
57 day of DTS.

And 12 days before I will be on my way to Asia!

Never in my life did I think I would ever go to Germany or Asia! I would have never dreamt that up. I didn’t know I was allowed to. My dreams varied from winning state medals, being a waitress at Sonic so I could rock the roller skates, play college basketball and graduate college, and you can throw in being a wife and mommy eventually.

I walk back and forth from the castle just laughing at the fact that never did I imagine walking through a forest in Germany to get to lecture and be preparing to go to Asia in a few short days.

Oh right, did I mention that I am going to Asia for 10 weeks?! Haha CRAZY. I can’t get over it. The first week of December our school will head to 4 separate locations split into 5 different teams for 10 weeks. My team is made up of a team of 18. Some of them I know really well, others are faces I’ve never got a chance to really talk to before. I am so excited. We will have such a variety of opportunities to share our stories and the freedom it is to be in a relationship with our Father with so many different types of people and in so many ways. To people who have never heard his name and people who have never been given the opportunity to make their own choices regarding anything in their lives.

The base these days are pretty hectic. Everyone is preparing spiritually, emotionally, financially and physically for our next step as a school. There is desperation all over the place! Haha We are desperate to be so near to the Father to do our absolute best in carrying His name to the nations. Some have been battling nagging sickness and I would say just about everyone is in need of a few Euro here and there. And by a few I mean a lot! Haha It is kind of crazy and it is kind of scary, but you know I kind of love it. My whole life I have grown up taken care of. I have had a job to support myself, or scholarships or my parents. So thankful that I never lacked, but I am learning a different kind of thankfulness in this time of waiting and desperation. I am completely relying on my ultimate Father to come through. We have had amazing testimonies of people being provided for. Money left in mailboxes, money unexplainably appearing in bank accounts, crazy amounts of money given from across the world to people giving out of lack. His children are provided in the smallest ways and in the most extravagant of ways. I pray that I can experience stories where there is no other explanation, but that I was provided for by my Father and Him alone. But there is so much truth in Him providing through our communities. This adventure I have been on the last few months has really shined a ton of light on my pride. I am not the first to willingly come to someone and say “I need…”, because that shows weakness and vulnerability. Yeah that’s hard for me. Haha.

But I want the fullness of what has been prepared for me and that includes me asking for help. So friends and family. I NEED HELP. I am in desperate need of finances. For flight, visa and the remainder of expenses for outreach I am lacking near $2000. I pray that everyone already knows how thankful I am for all the support that I have already received! Because of your generous hearts and your obedience it is easy to say that I will be provided for one way or another. I have faith that the Father will work His ways again just as He was behind every cent since I started fundraising.

If you would like to support me please contact my mom or me personally! Even if it is just to say hi or words of encouragement. I love hearing from everyone!

Besides finances, other prayer requests include provision of Visa processes, safety, prepared hearts and healed sicknesses.

He is faithful. In everything He begins He is completely faithful to finish.

I can’t wait to see how He shows up this time!
