It's time for me to go...

Hi friends!

So, I'm boarding a plane in just over a day to head to San Diego for 10 weeks. I'm going with Crusade on a Summer Project -- with 120 other college students!

I have to trust that God will use this time for His glory. It isn't about me, and that honestly excites me so much!

This blog is to keep everyone updated on what's happening in that sunny city (although, I just saw a live clip of SD on tv, it's not so sunny... funny.) I'm not bringing a computer, but I'm sure there will be tons of people with their's, so I'll sneak away to a coffee shop next to where we're staying and get online to post some thoughts.

I had to say goodbye to my brother, my sister-in-law, and my beautiful niece last night. That was hard! A huge fear I have is that Roma is going to be so different when I do actually get the chance to see her again. I was telling Danielle that my selfish side is crying "STAY!" so I can sit and play with Roma all summer. But we all know that this is what I need to do... God's called me to it! I believe that saying goodbye to them was the hardest part, now I'm just plain excited! It's a weird thought knowing I'm leaving for the entire summer, though.

I have a discipler named Jenni who is going to take me under her wing for the next 6 or so weeks. I'm excited. She's from Wisconson and seems like a really down to earth person who'll be easy to talk to. She's going to push me to do things I'm unfamiliar with, and she's going to help me learn so much. She's been on project before, so she knows what's up.

I fly out at 8:15 on Sunday morning... the next time you'll hear from me I'll be in sunny (or not so sunny) San Diego!

Be Blessed!

Prayer Requests:
For everyone traveling on Sunday
That God would defeat any Spiritual warfare happening in our hearts and in San Diego
Friendships that are going to be made
Our trips down to Mexico on the 12th and the 13th
Good Attitudes
Open Hearts!
