South Asia Update 1

As I mentioned in the previous post, there is a team from Pillar heading to South Asia this Fall! There are 3 of us who will be leaving VA on September 16, and returning October 2.

I have been so blessed and encouraged this week by the comments and support of family and friends as many have ordered the customizable journals and HUGE deal, in just 4 days after posting the first word on this trip and the needs, God provided the funds for the plane ticket through the generosity of a sweet, sweet family :) 
Thank you so very much, we are booking  the tickets on Monday- which makes this REAL!! Wow!!

Praise The Lord for:
1. Providing the ticket funds. 
2. The encouragement/support and sacrificial giving of his Children! 

Please pray for: 
1. The team God is sending. 
2. The $ for in-country expenses as well as for ministry aid for our missionary contact. 
3.The $ for our other team members as they fund raise out work and save. 
4. That I would lean into Christ more and more, trusting Him to provide and guide.
5. Another female to join the team. 


Here is how you can help
1. Pre-hire me To babysit, housesit, clean, walk your dog, paint a fence, anytime during the month August. 
2. Sponsor a day's expenses for the trip: $50 covers lodging, food, & in city travel for one day.  (We will be in country 13 days)
3. Sponsor the cost of the visa: $60 
4. Sponsor an interpreter for a day: ($10 per day, 13 days)

South Asia Bound

Well, family and friends...not really sure anyone knows this blog exists, but as I begin this next endeavor, I thought I would blog about each step along the way. 
A public documentation of how The Lord provides, to encourage you the reader, and me the one who often needs to be reminded to trust God as He directs my steps...(I can be quite stubborn). 

In September, Lord willing, I will head to South Asia with a team from Pillar to work alongside a friend serving there. Helping to train and disciple new believers. 

We will be there from September 16-October 2. 

Please pray for: 
1. The team God is sending. 
2. The $ for travel as well as for ministry aid for our missionary contact. 
3. That I would lean into Christ more and more, trusting Him to provide and guide.
4. Another female to join the team.
