A little update about my life, yesterday was my birthday! I love birthdays, I mean who doesn't. My day was full of wonderful surprises from my friends and family. I received some of the cutest gifts and loved all the phone calls. My friends at USF took me to dinner and here is a picture of the group! It has been a great week and recieving support letters today made it even better. I hope you all are having an awesome week as well! Love you!

Prayer Team

Hello!
I think I am focusing too much on raising support and not enough on prayer. It hit me today that without prayer, I will not get support. So I am asking God to raise up a team of believers to join me in prayer. I pray that through this experience and this blog you will see the power of prayer first hand. God is going to raise the $3000 because he is calling me to Miami.

Here are some specific prayer requests:
-For Miami the city
-The people we will meet
-The other students on the project
-My supporters who will read this blog
-Support raising
-And for me =]

Thank you for all your support, especially prayer!

Support Update!

A couple days ago I received this note with a $100 donation. This brings my total to $105! God is providing for this summer! Thank you so much for the support B!!!!!

God will provide!

Today I found this awesome note and gift from one of my roommates. It was one of the most encouraging post-its I've ever seen. I know God is going to provide all that I need for this trip. I know this because of what he has provided for me in the past. I was worried about finding roommates last year. And not only did God give me roommates, but he gave me the sweetest, loving, and most awesome ones he could find! I'm so excited for this support raising process to see God answer my prayers!

Starting to raise support!

This summer I am going on a missions project to MIAMI! But before I get to do that I have to raise $3000. The money will go towards travel, housing, food, and the ability to spend 10 weeks with a community of believers growing in relationships with God. I'm stoked!

Now I start the support raising process. I will be sending letters out to people asking if they could donate and asking if they would pray for my journey.

I will be posting updates on here so you can know where I stand in my financial goals. Also, once summer starts I will be posting about what is happening in Miami so you will be in the loop!

If you or anyone you know would like to partner with me on this journey send me an e-mail!

Thanks so much!
