Hello Everyone!
I have many praise reports!!
Four days ago, I went with a friend to get dinner and she gave me a the rest of the money I needed for Gulu!!! Praise the Lord! I am all set to go to Uganda. I have enough to take with me and be a blessing while I'm there! Praise the Lord for providing above and beyond what I asked for!
I also received an extremely generous financial gift from a supporter! The overdue tuition for this last semester is paid in full!! Praise the Lord! This came at such a surprise and is a huge answer to prayer! A few days prior to this gift, I was asking God for a specific amount of money and I received it exactly! The Lord is so good! He is faithful and He answers our prayers. Even when our prayers seem outrageous to us, they are minimal to our Lord!
A friend of the family I live with, Shelly, talked with her pastor at The River Christian Fellowship. They invited me to come and give a 5 minute announcement about Kyle and I's trip to Gulu! I shared the amazing way the Lord orchestrated plans for this trip. I was able to share at both their 9 AM and 11 AM services. When Shelly introduced me, she mentioned that my home church in Indiana is not meeting anymore. This church welcomed me with open arms. I felt right at home! It even reminded me of my previous church with similar passion, zeal for worship, and family community! They welcomed me and "adopted" me into their body. I am so excited to get to know them. They committed to pray for Kyle and I and cover us while we are in Uganda! They even took time to pray over us while we were there yesterday! I met many people and made many connections. I am eager to plug in to this church and hopefully help out in any way that I can! This is a huge answer to prayer!
Please continue to Pray for Kyle and I as we leave for Gulu this Sunday at 9 PM. We will arrive in the Entebbe, Airport on Tues. May 24th. We will then drive from Entebbe Airport to Gulu!
I might not be updating my blog until I get there! May the lord bless you all! Thank you for all of your prayer and support!!
Until then...
