Dee and Todd have made the move from their house to the ministry apartment and now mom and I are in the middle of moving from our apartment to the house.
I am nowhere near where I'd like to be in the whole packing process, I've only just recently started on my room.
Throwing old and unneeded items away has always been a challenge for me but I am taking this move as an opportunity to face this particular weakness of mine head on. (Lol, pray for me!)

Trip to Peru
Mission trip to Peru:
The original plan was to go with my mother in Feb. but my Uncle Jim was very recently diagnosed with tongue cancer. Mom is now planning on moving to Phoenix in just a couple of months to be there for him and his family (wife and 8 year old daughter) during his treatment period.
Even though I won't be going in Feb. I am looking forward to making the trip in July with a group from my church.

Travel News
Plans are being set for my upcoming mission trip to Peru. As of just the other day we were looking at a week in Peru in mid February, around the 15th.
Over the course of my planned week there I'll be spending a lot of time with the children attending the schools that Pastor Mario is actively supporting.
I still need to raise funds to cover the flights so I'm asking for any support available.
Just today Dee and I sat down to discuss when would be a good time to spend a week or two in Indiana with the Dawn and Richard Johnson. We decided on the later half of April and now we're awaiting a response from Dawn on when would be best for them.
While in Indiana I plan to be of service to the Johnsons and their prison ministry in whatever way I am able. My time there promises to be enjoyable and the experience I'll gain through this opportunity is beyond measure!

Testimony
I would not be here, writing this, today if it were not for God.
This past year has been one of monumental changes. I went from being a painfully shy 18 year old who made plans, and never followed through, to a confidant 19 year old that has already accomplished numerous acts that I had thought to be impossible for me. God has turned me in many different directions since the fall of 2oo7. I went from avoiding the church to being there almost every day and I'm the happiest that I've ever been.
The turning point for me was a class I took last September on healing ministry, taught by Martin Frankena. He came to Revival Connections that first time to teach Week One of his School of the Spirit. On the second day of the teaching Martin went through a plethora of generational curses with me that had been passed through my family line and had me renounce each one as it came up. I can't explain the feeling of relief that I had after that day, finally someone noticed the pain that I was living with and knew what to do about it. I waited 18 years for that day. No amount of explaining can do justice to how grateful I am to Martin and his wife Cynthia for what they did.
My life growing up (with practically unexplained depression and anxiety) wasn't easy by any means but it shaped who I am today and for that I'm forever thankful for the trials. God was, is and always will be my lifeline. I can honestly say that I don't know how to live, let alone survive, without Him. What better way to show my gratitude than dedicating my life to telling others what God has done for me?
