Support Update

Hey friends and family! Many of you have probably received a support letter from me, and if you haven't yet, you're probably going to soon! ;-} Thanks to those of you who have promised to pray for me already. Prayer support is what I need more than anything for this trip, and it really blesses my heart to have brothers and sisters lifting me up in that way.

I just heard from the Lighthouse (my church) mission committee today, and they're going to bless me with $1,000 for the trip! Praise the Lord! I am so grateful that my church family is supporting me in this way.

While I am encouraged by the support from LCC, I also know that there is a long way to go. I know the Lord will provide everything I need for this trip, and I'm choosing to trust him instead of being influenced by the lies of the enemy. Pray that I will keep trusting God and that I won't let apparent setbacks or the economic state of our nation be a discouragement. I know the Lord has a big bank account, and if he wants me to do this, he'll find a way to pay for it, no questions asked.

I thought it would be fun to show a running tally of how much money I've raised so far, so we can all be thanking the Lord for the miraculous ways he has provided, and the miraculous ways he's going to provide! I'll try to keep this updated as I get more funds in. Thanks for your support!
