Hello all! Well just to give a quick update: I am currently at about 57% of my funds raised! Yay! This is SO great! But I still have a little ways to go. To put things into money terms here's how it looks: In my one time set up donations I have $9,000 which means that I still need $5,000 towards one time donations. For my monthly pledges I have $800, which means that I still need $1,000 in monthly pledges. Our budget has also been revised since there are less people going now, so my monthly has increased about $100. Prayers and support are highly encouraged and appreciated!
Thank you all for what you have done to help. I am starting to prepare for departure to Minnesota. In other news, our departure date has been pushed back to October 15th. So I will be living on campus until we leave. I will be leaving Florida for Minnesota on August 30th, just in time to make it to the wedding of some very dear friends of mine on September 1st! I am very excited, and happy to be able to stay on campus, and see people I haven't been able to say good bye to before I leave.
I am so excited to be heading to Marseille to do ministry, and learn, and grow. It almost seems unreal because it isn't super close yet, but I know once it's upon me I'll be getting even more excited! I can't wait to see what the Lord does, and how He'll work in this time I'll be spending in France.
Please continue to pray for preparedness, and finances to come in! i appreciate all the support you have already provided! Thank you.
Blessings and Love,
Chrissy
