Rwanda Preparation Update


Thanks to everyone who has been praying for us and offering financial support for our trip! I have gotten several requests for updates...so here we go!

  • Clay and I are officially vaccinated! Yes, the rumors are true. The injections made me woozy and I was forced to lie on the floor in the nurse's office with my feet elevated while she siphoned Coke down my throat. Awesome.

  • We met as a whole team for the first time on August 11. It was a great time of getting to know the others going, and hearing their hearts for Rwanda/Africa/the orphan/missions. God has assembled an incredible team for this trip, and I am looking forward to the relationships that will be cultivated through this experience.

  • God has blessed us through many of you with nearly $2000 in funds! Our current balance is approximately $3000. If you feel led to help join our team of Senders by supporting us financially or in prayer, please email/call/Facebook message me or Clay and we'll get you the info. We praise God for His provision thus far, and trust Him as He continues to make a way for us to serve Him abroad.

Again, we covet your prayers in this time as we prepare for this ministry. We are excited to see how God uses us in the lives of the Rwandans, and how God transforms us in the process. To God be the glory!
