A New Update

This past Thursday our Missions coaches from WorldVenture were hanging out at Moody so Anna, Park, and I were able to meet up with them. It was a really good time and we were actually able to call the missions coordinator in Japan with them and get a lot of info on the trip and what were're going to be doing over there. We felt very informed when we left. I'll post that info once it's all solidified, but I do have one prayer request. World Venture is asking that each of us have $1,000 in our accounts at the end of the week so we can purchase plane tickets. I was a little surprised at the short amount of time we have, but I do know that God is sovereign over even every penny that floats around this world...so pray that they end up in our accounts! Thanks and I'll keep ya posted as I get informed.

Internship Update

I finally got my prayer letters typed up and sent out this weekend! It's actually starting feel like we're making some progress on getting things set up and ready to go. I was surprised even today to see the Lord working through the process and seeing prayer partners and support coming in already. I still don't have information on the "when, where exactly, how much, how long exactly," but I'll pass the word on when I get it. The missionaries on the field on hard at work setting it all up for the 3 of us going. In the meantime, however, if you think of me could you pray for

1. The logistics and finances for our trip to come together
2. That Park, Anna, and I would be able to finish the semester strong and be all ready to go early June
3. For the missionaries we'll be serving with (because they're going to have to put up with the the three of us alll summer :-) and for those who we'll be meeting and making friends with...that God would be softening they're hearts even now.

Thanks!

Things are coming along...

This is my first post ever! How exciting. Today I got my first email from my Japan trip coordinator and I'm getting very excited about the trip! I'm just finishing up my prayer letter now and hope to have them all mailed out by the end of the week!
