Can I just say that God is totally amazing!! I have been working really hard to raise my own money for this trip to Africa and let me say that it is NOT cheap. I have had two people so far just give me money for my trip without having to send out support letters. Well, last night a sweet lady who shall remain nameless sent me a check with quite a sizeable amount...$500!! Not only that, but she sent Amy a very large check to begin the fund for the new home that needs to be purchased and built. MANY tears were shed because we were all together when we opened these letters. Such a sweet note accompanied these checks. Sorry to be so vague, but suffice to say that God provides even when we don't expect it.
I cannot believe that I leave in 26 days! There is so much to do, but I am trying not to get overwhelmed. I will enjoy this Christmas with my family (the last one together for two years since MB will be leaving for North Africa...sadness) and then focus on packing next week or perhaps the next one since I am a last-minute-packer anyway. I hope that you have a wonderful time with your families.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!
