It's The Most Wonderful Time of the Year...

I know it's not Christmas, but let's be honest, I think we've begun to get more excited by pumpkin EVERYTHING than snow! Or maybe not... But if you're like me, you love fall! The color of the leaves as they change from green to brilliant hues of orange, red, and yellow. Unfortunately in South Florida all the weather change we know is from disgustingly hot to moderately hot. But hey, at least we still get pumpkin everything! 

I digress, if you're part of my Facebook group, then you know the exciting news I received, I am officially at appointee status! Woo-hoo! This means that: I can start support raising, and really get the ball rolling on heading to Belfast! I am SO excited to be in this stage of the process! At the moment I'm working on figuring out my budget (taxes can be a pretty tricky thing to figure out...) but once that's all done, I can really move forward, and let you all know about how you can help me in my support raising endeavors. 

This is a journey that I am taking with you. Keep that in mind! Your prayer, financial, and encouragement support are all part of making this possible. God created each of us to be part of this process, and I'm so thankful that you are here, walking alongside me, helping out in whatever capacity you can! I'm looking forward to joining the team, who just got offices for the church, which I'm so excited to see! They're also starting another school year with the students at Queen's University by holding another leadership course for them, teaching biblical principles of leadership in practical ways. Tomorrow night they're having a party for some of these students, and over nineteen countries will be represented, how cool is that? I can't wait to get over there and join them! But in this I am most definitely learning patience! It's all in God's timing, and I know that in each season, each place that I am the Lord has me here for a reason, and is teaching me more about who He is, and His heart for the people of this beautiful world that He created. 

I encourage you, that no matter where you're at, no matter how hard it is, to find contentment in the season God has you in. I understand, believe me, and I am in no way perfect at this (see last blog post....), but it is an area I'm trying to grow in. So let's grow in this together!

Blessings and Love,
