I never imagined my life looking like this. Being a missionary was not in my job description! Yet here I am preparing myself for a 7 month journey to Latvia, Europe!! The song I am playing/singing above (rough I know) is a song that has spoke directly to my heart through my recent struggles. I became so wrapped up in how/what I needed to prepare for Latvia that I forgot about the One reason I even had the opportunity to join Josiah Venture--Jesus. He sparked a fire in my heart for Latvia and he isn't stopping until every heart knows His name!
I have sent out roughly 50 support letters in the past two weeks and already have been greatly blessed with financial support!! I have a ton more to send out and would greatly appreciate it if you could spread what I am doing to friends and family at church and at home.
As most of you know I have to raise $13,257 by May 1st, 2012 before I can go to Latvia. So far the church has offered to support $1300. A very good family friend has graciously offered to support me every two weeks up until I leave which is roughly $3900!! I have also been given $100 from another great friend! I am so grateful to have people in my life who are helping me expand God's kingdom!! I cant do it without you all! Please continue to pray for me as I trust that God will help me raise $8,057 by May 1st.
