Counting Down

It's crunch time with finals. 7 down, 1 to go!
This weekend I will be busy packing and spending time with some family members before leaving North Carolina on Sunday afternoon where my dad and I will travel to Lynchburg, VA for our team send off. Our team will then travel to Washington, DC around 10 am to board our 5:55pm flight at Dulles Airport via KLM airlines on Monday.

I also want to take this time to give a BIG THANK YOU to my church family at Hickory Grove. Their support throughout this whole process of support raising and preparing for Africa has been unbelievable!! Two Weeks ago hundreds of women from HGBC gathered around Morgan, Kim, and myself and prayed over us. Last Sunday the College & Career Sunday School Class did the same thing! Such a great picture of The Church!  I have never felt so loved and cared for by a church family in my life. To GOD be the Glory, I am so blessed to be part of this local church body.

Prayer Requests:
1) Focus for this LAST exam
2) Pray that I would find REST and meet intimately with the Lord!  Right now I am extremely anxious. Anxious about packing up my dorm, unpacking at my house, re-packing for Africa. I am anxious about the fact that my to-do list is more than a mile long, spending last minute time with family and friends, about traveling 21 hours, about going to AFRICA! Pray that I would cast all my burdens and cares on the Lord and find my rest in Him!
3) Safe Travel- to Lynchburg, VA and then to Africa. I will get to Africa at 3:20pm (our time) on Tuesday May 17th, which will be 9:20pm South African time.
4) Jet Lag and ENERGY!

It's REALLY Happening!

I'm going to AFRICA!!!

THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR SUPPORT!
