missions trip
Preparation for Peru
I realized I haven’t said anything about this on my blog yet - I’m going on my first missions trip/overseas experience ever next month, starting the fifth. I’m going to Peru for a month with a group of other college-aged interns to serve in some orphanages. I’m extremely excited about it! I have a lot to do this month to finish getting ready to go - taking care of vaccinations, things I need to buy for the trip, etc. And I’m nervous, too. Thankfully, I’ve gotten more excited than nervous, because I got my manual in the mail recently so I know more about what to expect.
Anyway, I would appreciate your prayers as I get ready to go. By God’s grace I was able to raise more than 100% of my support by the June 1st deadline. And the deadline was only for 50% of my support! It’s been amazing. (Some of the extra money will be used for buying things for the orphans or my hosts, and maybe a few of my extra travel expenses.) As of right now, I’m pretty sure I’m going to take my laptop along, so I should be able to blog from there.
With all that being said, I suppose I should go be productive. I got a lucky day off from work - my boss just didn’t schedule me today. I’m loving it. Have a great Wednesday!
