Hey y'all,
It's so much more real now. I spent a week up in Canada participating in orientation for Germany. It was put on by Janz Team Ministries which is the missions organization that I am going through to get to Germany. It was really nice to meet another 15 people that are also going to BFA. We all have such a heart to minister to these kids.
We learned so much about cultural differences and the term "Third Culture Kids." These are missionary kids whose parents are from one country, yet they are growing up in another country. Neither country is their culture, so they are somewhere in the middle. They deal with different things from regular kids. I hope to show them the love of God.
So with getting to meet a bunch of great people and learning more about what I will be doing and how to do it better, I had a great time.
Please pray for me as I continue to raise support. I currently have 35-40% of my support raised. I need to have 80% before I can go over and I have around 6 weeks left before I am supposed to go. Also pray for my fellow peeps that I met in Canada that they will also be able to raise their support.
God bless.

TEAM
Things are slow here because I am not in Germany yet, but they will pick up when I get over there. Anyway...
Team, such a simple word but a word that means so much. It especially means much in this situation. The reason is that this is what needs to be created for me to go to Germany. It is about a group of people caring about reaching to missionary kids in Europe. These kids are away from home in a strange country and if I can live with them and support them, it will serve them.
I am nothing special. I am amazed at how God wants to use such an imperfect person as myself. I am just able and willing to go. Many people can't go. That doesn't mean that they can't join together to accomplish a ministry goal.
That is what I want to create. A team of people gathering together doing different things to accomplish one goal. I am only one person and at most I am just the hand, but I can't do anything without the body contributing. So in prayer and finances, or many other ways, I ask you to team with me. This isn't about me going somewhere. This is about serving God and doing His work.
