Rookies....

A full day of sessions today has left me exhausted, and very aware of the intensity if this trip.
From how to build a team to safety protocol - I'm left very aware that I am a ROOKIE!

My co-leader happens to be a rookie as well so this will be interesting.

--First things first...getting a team vision---

Our team's vision is to be "deeply committed to loving selflessly"
Even though my Co (co-leader) haven't met our team - our vision is to make sure our team leaves knowing how to serve God and others selflessly!

"Quiet Time Take-Away"
Acts 8:26-35
Philip was a rookie!!

God led him all of way and when he got to the Ethopian - there was a perfect window for Philip to present the gospel and he went for it!

God has provided this opportunity to us and He is faithful to see it through and give us the boldness we need to present the gospel!!

I'm so excited!!!!

Random opportunities

At the swimming pool with my lil sis'. Which is beyond random since I can't swim. But it's FREE so we r here..


Sorry - that was random BUT- speaking of random.... today I'm asking God to provide opportunities to share the gospel in random places in South Africa - like the airport - lodging site - marketplace - WHEREVER -

Please join with me and pray for these opportunities and that me and my team will be ready to share the gospel whenever possible!!

2 days...

Almost 2 days until I head on a plane to Texas! I bought a cowboy hat and everything! haha.. Anyways, please pray for me as I finish up packing and cramming stuff into my bag. I am praying for favor and that my bags are under the limit! =)
Also, pray for my fellow team leaders, as we are all beginning to become overwhelmed with the amount of duties and tasks we will be assigned on this trip.

Keep us all in your prayers as we prepare to head out this Friday to train for a day and then train our Missionary Advisors that SAT! Then, pray for ideas of how we build a team atmosphere before Mon (when the other missionaries arrive) so that we can start off with unity!!!

Love you all!

Please feel free to comment and share anything you receive for my team and I as you pray for us! God is always speaking and we are willing to listen!!
