So the plan for this summer is to be a leader on a trip to the Philippines. The Ambassador  Program is another ministry AIM offers, that sends out teams of 15-18 year olds all over the world. This upcoming summer two other leaders and I will be leading a team to the Philippines. I'll be in charge of the cooking and cleaning, and will also be ministering with the team, but my main role will be to support the students and pour into them so that they can pour into the people.  The plan is to leave around June 21st for a training camp in Georgia and then fly out as a team for the Philippines until July 26th.


I'm really excited and nervous, but every time nerves come up, God reminds me that He's going to enable me and that He's got me. I'm excited to play a different role on a team. I've been a participant on a lot of teams and knowing how much the leaders impacted my life makes me excited to be able to impact others. The nervous part is doing the behind the scenes thing and cooking. I'm a pro at crepes, soup and Easy mac. The three of which I don't think will sustain a team for four weeks. But then God reminds me that if He can save a nation, He can help me cook ( I don't know which one is more of a miracle.) Beyond all that, I can't wait to meet the team and pour into them. I know that this is what God has for me over the summer.


I would love to have your support on this trip. God shows me over and over the importance of having a prayer backing. Please pray for the other leaders and me, that we completely rely on Him and for the team, that the Lord will give us a heart for the people of the Philippines. Pray that the Lord will lead us and direct us to those whose hearts are ready to hear His word.  Also, please pray about possibly supporting me financially. As a leader the trip costs $2000 plus airfare to Georgia and travel insurance which comes out to about $2500. I know that this is what the Lord has for me and that He will provide. Thank you for the support you have already given me enabling me to be here in Swaziland. I am seeing God move and I am so excited to see Him alive in the Philippines.


Ok so that's all. I know I say "thank you again," at the end of almost every blog, but I mean it. I really appreciate the support I get from home, it's so encouraging to get an e-mail or a comment from people. It brightens my day! Peace!
