this is it!

So tonight is my last night in the states before i begin my journey. you know its funny because this whole past month i was suppose to be preparing and all that stuff, but i feel like not really until Sunday did i realize that I'm really going. that i really have to say bye to the community i love so dearly. it was really hard for me to say bye to Jacobs well. its one of the biggest blessings in my life. the community and life that is lived by so many there, what God is doing through the body there never ceases to amaze me. my cup runneth over so much and i will truly miss going every Sunday. They had a prayer pop corn pow-wow sorta thing in the chapel and it was beautiful. to be with Sarah Beth who is coming on the mission trip the first week and with Tim & Mimi, Philip, ed & ansie, Marcel, Garth, Kate, Bea...so many. you know it is truly a blessing to have people pray for you. its SO humbling and a truly honoring gift to receive.

anyway..i had dinner with Bea tonight...funny i was craving a salad and then forgot to order one...then felt high maintenance b/c i changed my order...anyway. from tomorrow on its gonna be mainly rice and beans i think...oh and Pb&j! so when you eat these things think of me. i don't know when I'll get the Internet again...but know that i am ready for my journey. for the Lord has gone before me and i am so excited to join Him and many more of His servants who are already working to make a difference in Haiti. thanks for all your prayers. see you in 6 months, but talk to you soon, very soon.

LOVE LOVE LOVE
