Latest update

Letting you know Maria got her passport in the mail last week! We had a yard sale on Sat to try to raise money for the trip and we didn't do so well, only made $59. I am not upset because I know God will supply our needs. It's not about what we can do but how He will supply. God is growing my faith in new ways this trip. A friend from our church gave me a book to read last week called The Power in Prayer by Charles Spurgeon. It was so timely and what an awesome little book. You should find it and read it! Things like that are ways God speaks to us. He will grow our faith when we follow Him.
We should have an update about our funds by tomorrow. We need to bring $1,000 each to the meeting this Thursday.
Please pray for us as we get together this week to make plans for the trip. We want the plans to be what God wants us to do.
Please keep our team in your prayers.

Our 2nd meeting

Well tonight we had our second meeting.  We met at Caribou with some people from our group and Damon (the one in charge of Build the Village)  He told us all about what our trip was going to be like and what changes have been made since last year and  whats going on there now, so it was cool to see everything and hear what was going on over there.  The more meetings we go to the more anxious and excited I am to get there! I cant wait to go!!! :)  God is doing some great things and I cant wait to see what He has in store for us and the people in Choimim!
