Goooooood Morning!!
I suppose today is the first of the single digit countdown!! 9 MORE DAYS!! I have just over a week left to go until I move to warmer climates for 90 days. Planning still seems to be on track, I am not fully packed yet, but definitely started.
Erik sorta threw a curve ball (a good one though) into to my planning by.....asking me to BE HIS WIFE!!! I am so excited about this new step in our relationship, but I do ask that you will all continue to keep us in your prayers as we will be apart for the first half of our engagement.
As far as sendoff's go, two Sunday's ago Somerset Bible Chapel sent me off from their church, and this Sunday is my sendoff as Cornerstone Ministries. Next week Tuesday, I will be attending youth to say a last goodbye to all my friends there, and on Wednesday I will be at jr. youth say my goodbyes there. I am so very thankful for all of the prayer support and and monetary support as well. I am so excited to say that I have enough money (all by donation) to get me to Kenya!!! But not only that, I have enough to buy some toothbrushes, coloring books, crayons, blankets, baby clothes and probably even some toys to bring down!! Plus extra to donate to Happy Life Children's Home for whatever they are needing!! So thank you all for praying and donating, and also for reading what I have to say :)
I really hope you keep checking back for news as I start on this journey that God has placed in my path. I will update with praise items as well and prayer requests, and I urge you to comment because I would love to hear from all of you!!
I hope you have a fantastic day, and thank you so much for being a part of God's mission.
Love: Rachel :)
Congratulations on your engagement!! So excited for you!
ReplyDeleteWill be thinking of you and praying for you on your mission trip, and hope you will have good traveling.
