Thank- You

I can't say thank you enough, for each one of you. All of your encouragement, love, wisdom, prayers and financial support have been huge blessings in my life. As the body of Christ, we need each other, thank you for letting me lean on you when I don't have the words to pray, the wisdom my heart needs or the funds to keep going.

Being in YWAM, there are a lot of sacrifices, that are made. There is a lot laid down and put aside to obey what God is speaking in order to be here. Knowing that I have a body of people who know where I come from, have watched me grow in the Lord, take steps of faith toward, heard my pain and seen me cry, means the WORLD to me! Just as a child can rest in his mother's arms, so can I rest in knowing that I have each of you in my life.

Most of you know my journey and some more than others know my life down to the detail, and I am so great- fully blessed. I have walked through many trials, been up on the mountain top, and knowing that I people who have loved me through it all, brings my heart so much peace and rest. Thank you for being there in the past, and thank you for being here for me now, and for believing for the future!

We are in the last week of lecture phase of the DTS, which means we are almost half way through it all! I can't believe how FAST it has come and gone! We leave exactly one week from tomorrow, Tuesday June 19^th. My team will leave on Tuesday June 26^th, at 12:00pm out of Kona airport.

As I am preparing to depart, would you consider standing with me in the place of prayer?

If so, here are some prayer points :

• Communication for my co-leader and I
• Unity in our team
• The rest of our finances to come in $7,000 total- $2,000 being mine.
• Wisdom from God
• My heart would stay submitted to God
• God's will not mine
• Ability to love my team, even when it's hard

Thank you for taking time to read this! I pray that God blesses you where you are!

Blessings!
