Getting Closer

We had our garage sale and it was a huge success. We were able to raise $1200 and bless a lot of people in our community. We sold a ton of stuff at crazy low prices and still made a good amount of money for the team. God works in cool and interesting ways. He was definitely watching over us that day.
Only one month to go.....yikes! The trip is getting closer and closer. Thankfully, by the grace of God, I am very close to my fundraising goal. It is very reassuring to place my trust in Him and see first hand how He will provide. My human side was a little nervous about being able to raise $3000. I had to continually pray and trust that if the Lord truly wanted me to go on this trip then He will find a way to provide the funds. He not only provided the funds, but He showed me how many people around me are there to help support and encourage me in more ways than just financially. That means more to me than just being able to pay for the trip. I want to say a huge THANK YOU to all who helped support me. I ask for your continued prayers for my family as well as myself that we have the emotional support we need while I am gone. It will be hard for all of us even if it is only two weeks.
