There is much to be thankful for and first and foremost thanks be to Jesus that this Ministry even be possible.  God has provided all the support for my trip!  There were many doubts at the beginning of the trip that this much financial support would be possible to raise.  It is OFFICIAL our God is one that when He sets His eye on Glorifying Himself the job gets done.  It is so amazing just to sit back sometimes and praise God for the many great blessings we have in our lives.  Today marks another day in the countdown to getting to meet all of you.  We are now less than 13 days from dday.  This week there is quite a bit of exciting events taking place.  The most amazing thing right now on my plate is that God has allowed me a chance to talk about this South African ministry to my home church.  Though already being at full capacity in my support account, I feel being led to continue with the support letters this Sunday to benefit the Ministry.  I will mention that I do have full support though.  I met with the Pastor of my home church today.  To fill you in on our church.  It is a relatively new church, and we have been going for about 3 years this October.  I have been a member for over a year now, and I really love what God is doing in the ministry there.  The exciting part of last weeks sermon was that our church will begin missions this summer.  We hadn't had the money to get anything set in stone until now.  Isn't it exciting that our church family will begin missions the summer of 08.  Our church is Quest United Methodist.  If you could pray for our ministry that would be awesome.  When I met with Andy we talked about the plan this Sunday.  All, this will be the first time I ever have given my testimony in front of my church family.  I sat there meeting with Andy and I couldn't stop smiling.  I have been so excited for this trip and right now I can't help but think how many great things God will do for his Glory through us.  We will be the hands and feet of Christ.  I pray that all of you will be in the word daily in these last two weeks.  Can't wait to meet you, and look forward to daily post until then.
