Friends, Surgeries, and Fear....

Hello all!

Well it's been a little while, mostly because of a very hectic, crazy schedule! The beginning of June has come and gone, and decisions are being made, about how to proceed. This post will probably have a ton of prayer requests in it, so stay tuned for those, as well as other fun little tidbits about life these past few months.

Where to start? Well, Caitlyn came to visit. Let's start there. Caitlyn is one of my dearest, closest friends from school. She is bright, bubbly, fun, and loud! I love this girl! She came all the way from West Virginia to stay for almost a week, to relax, vacation, and see the beach. She also came at a wonderful time, since there were other things going on here at home.

1.) Surgery. Mom was having surgery on her intestines to remove a cyst. The biopsy results have not come back yet, so stay tuned for those, as well. Also please pray for continual healing, and that everything would come back fine. The surgery went very well though, and they didn't have to do an invasive surgery which was a favorably answered prayer! Thank you God!

2.) Fear. I have to admit, on the fundraising front, I am not doing as swimmingly as I'd hoped. Money is coming in. And thank a thousand times to all whom have provided said money! It is more encouraging than you know to see a few dollars here and there being donated! But, this brings me to prayer request two, please pray about finances, as well as divine appointments for me, so that all the funds will be raised in time for me to a. get my visa. and b. GO! It is very discouraging sometimes to hit these roadblocks where you feel like you are constantly questioning if you're headed in the right direction. So also pray for guidance, wisdom, and words from the Lord for me, about these things.

All this to say, that despite everything going on in my life, it was a joy having Caitlyn here! She made my day brighter, and definitely made my whole family laugh on more than one occasion! She was an encouragement to me, and to my mom. I love her a lot, and I'm super thankful that I got to have her here!

Now, to all my Port Saint Lucie followers, I will be doing a dinner for fundraising soon, so stay tuned for that as well! The details will be on facebook, so check those out soon! If you like to donate, click the link below.
