Preparing

Hey guys! I know it's been awhile since I have updated. I've been preparing for the Junior High Youth Group and also preparing for my Israel trip!

Preparation before the Israel trip includes being prepared spiritually and also I'm prepping through the archelogical periods, geography, and research. This has taken up my wee hours this week.

As for preparation for the JRH YG lets just say I'm having fun with it!!! The kids are awesome and God has been really good! It's been fun! This week was good.

For those who are praying, please also pray for preparation, but also debriefing when I get back. What will the impact of the trip be? How was I impacted? How will my walk change, will it? Etc.

Also, to prepare as I come back home and report back to friends and churches of what God has done. I was asked to speak at a church in the Bay Area by a good friend and former pastor of mine the 2nd or 3rd week of March. I'm looking forward to speaking, because I know God has put a lot of things on my heart, but will continue to!

My theme for the trip I believe will be PRESENCE. Being in the presence of God. My own journey!

I've definitely been busy, but one of the biggest things I ask for prayer about is decisions that are coming up. I think I know where I want to go, I've been decerning where God wants me to go! I will hopefully be meeting with Dave Ingland and also Tim Leung in the next weeks before I leave!
