Crazy, right? Sunday, August 26th at 3:40 in the afternoon!! I'll arrive SAFELY in Lima, Peru around 10:30 that night. Say a prayer for me and my fellow missionary traveler, Liz! We'll be living together over the next four months. . . as in sharing a room! So we are sure to become good friends. :)
Let's see. . . some things on my mind. . . it's been a wild ride even getting to this point. I cannot BEGIN to express how much God has confirmed my decision to go simply by the amount of encouragement I have received from my family and friends. If I ever thought no one cared about me or that I served a silent God, boy was I proven wrong! The outpouring of verbal, financial and prayerful support that I have received by my loved ones and even people I don't know has been incredible!
To everyone who has helped me in any of these ways, THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. Again, words cannot being to express my gratitude. In order to show this appreciation, you can count on me giving all that I have to the cause I have committed to while in Peru-the cause of sharing Jesus Christ and His love for the world.
"For I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. " Galatians 2:20
I ask that as I venture out on this journey of taking up my cross daily, that I will display the God who lives inside of me and that people will feel His overwhelming love for them. Through this, I hope to see many Peruvian faces in Heaven someday. :)

May God make a change to someone else through you.
Know that you can only plant the seed, He will grow it. Use your passion to help those that God will allow you to start a change in their life, and let Him remind you when the battle needs to be rescheduled.
I will pray for your fun, adventure and safety.
I love you.
