Hello again! I am so excited to tell you that I will be leaving for Mexico in 8 DAYS!!! My flight leaves out at 7:30 am on Saturday the 11th, which I found out means that I will have to be at the airport at 5:15am that morning...but I'm up for it! I can't wait to tell you about this trip, so look forward to reading about it within that next week I get back, (I get back on the 19th). I want to thank those who have financially and prayerfully supported me for this journey. Please continue to pray for me, the team that I am going with, and all the people there. So far I do not have enough funds to pay for the entire trip but I know that God has me covered. It's crazy how anxious I can get, when on the way to doing something the Lord wants me to do, because I haven't received everything for the task yet. Everything that the Lord has for me to do, He will supply my needs, that has to be a constant reminder, and not just for me, for you too, no matter what it is. If we fail to trust in the Lord we fail to love the Lord.
I have been doing lots of different things to get ready for this trip. I learned how to ask for a bottle of water. If you didn't know, you can't drink the tap water there, it will make you sick. One night, almost a month ago I approached a man that I see often, that I thought spoke English, and began a conversation with him about Mexico, which is where he was from. It turns out he doesn't speak English! I wasn't too disappointed though because we were still able to communicate with one another, without having to use many hand motions. It was a fun experience, hopefully for both of us. To get more comfortable with my talk I have been sharing it with others whenever possible. I was grateful to be able to share it with three co-workers after work one day and this next Wednesday I will share it with my discipleship group.
It's hard to only write about this upcoming trip when so much has been going on in my life, but I will leave you with this for now. I hope that you are doing well.
