Since the last time I posted, some major steps have been taken to clear my way to Rwanda. I can now officially share all the information...
- The district granted me a sabbatical from work until next school year. My last day with my little kiddos will be April 19th.
- My plane ticket has been purchased. I will be flying out of Charlotte on May 2nd with the return date planned for July 8th.
- I have updated all my shots/medical info.
- My final fundraising night has been planned. I have received such tremendous support!! Thanks to everyone. God has truly provided through His people.
- In Rwanda I will spend my days teaching and working with teachers, visiting the sick, needy, orphaned/widowed, and being Benjamin's organizational system for the ministry :)
As the day grows closer I have so many emotions, the greatest being a combination of excitement and nervousness. I am thrilled that God has taken me through this whole process and continues to teach me new things about Himself all the time.
Please pray for me in these last few weeks of preparation- that my heart would be completely surrendered to the Lord and prepared for what He has for me, that I will be able to get everything done without pushing the limits of my energy and sanity (haha), and that Satan would have no room in my mind to breed anxiety, fear, or dread of being so far away from "home." I must remember my home is really wherever Jesus meets me!
Thank you for the overwhelming love and support.
