Thank you for your patience! I have been gone through much of the month of June and just got back from a float trip on the Illinois River with my youth group!
The first week of June, I went to Mission Arlington with my youth group. I got the opportunity to share the Gospel in two different apartment communities in Arlington, Texas! It was great! We saw kids come to know Christ and my faith grew as a result.
The week after Mission Arlington, I got a chance to be a part of our LIT Mission Trip and a chance to host missionaries from AWESTAR--an organization that sends students out and this summer they are in Cambodia, Latvia, Peru, and Panama! Our LIT mission trip was for kids in 4th-6th grades and I got a chance to help with this mission trip in our community!
This past weekend, I got we had a PERU retreat and our team spent Friday night in worship and prayer. On Saturday, we finished preparations in getting ready for the trip! I am so excited!
I am very excited to go to Peru. We leave July 19th and return July 31st! I am going to get to be on the children's ministry team! Check out www.awestar.org and go to Trip updates for Calvary and Ridgeway and you will be able to see updates from our trip the week that we are there!
I will also post on here a prayer calendar for you to pray for us while we are in Peru! I cannot thank you enough for your support by purchasing purses for my Peru trip! Through you, I am fully funded! If you still want a purse, I can start on them after Peru!
