Wooohooo!!
$18,200
Yes, I am fully funded!!
It has been an incredible year!! I am beyond SO grateful for all of your prayers and donations through out this year!
A year ago I was praying for the Lord to give me a direction and a sign of what His plans for my life would be in the next 2 years.
When I submitted my application for the World Race, I felt at peace with the decision and I was believing an Ephesians 3:20 over this trip.
Within the first two months I received a few thousand dollars through donations and that was when I just knew God would make this all possible and that this was His plan for me!
Just over the weekend I mentioned that I was $3,000 away from hitting my final goal and…
BAM!..
I got an email that my trip is now fully funded!
Ephesians 3:20 “Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,”
Firstly, I want to give my Heavenly Father all the praise and glory to Him who has promised me a hope and future! I am grateful to see His GOODNESS through out the whole fundraising journey! He had promised to provide it all and it was by faith and by His mighty hand that has brought me to my final fundraising goal and to have all the supplies I need to leave with.
When I was a child I sat on large rock overlooking a mountain and admiring God’s beauty. That was when I wanted to see the world. At the same age I had a desire to serve others, and even be a traveling missionary some day. I didn’t imagine that at 26 years old, the Lord would take me to 11 countries to share His love and the gospel around the world.
And so if the Lord had planted that desire on my heart as a child, what can He do for you? The Lord has never forgotten about you. Actually His word says that HE is FOR YOU!! (Romans 8:31)
I pray that who ever reads this is encouraged and prays GOD’S will for your own life as you seek Him. He has a purpose and plan for your life too! (Jeremiah 29:11)
I am so excited for this next year and all that the Lord is going to do through my team and I. I am excited to see where the Lord is already at work in advancing His Kingdom. I’m thrilled to see how He will use and lead us and how we will come to a deeper relationship with Him.
Lastly, once again I want to say thank you to all my many donors who have helped make my trip possible. I’m so glad you choose to follow my journey so far. Through out the next year I will blog and keep you updated when I am able. I ask that you continue to keep my team and I in your prayers. January 2nd is my last day in New Jersey! I Love you ALL! God bless you!
