6 Weeks and Counting!

Wow...I just realized that in exactly 6 weeks I will be on an airplane on my way to Zambia. It's hard to believe it's that close! The first group leaves on Thursday, so please pray for safe tavels and a successful kickoff to the program. I am so excited to get to meet my kids and let them know that they are loved. It seems like everywhere I turn these days I am reminded of the sadness so many children in Africa live in every single day. It certainly makes me feel silly for the times when I complain about stupid stuff in my life that isn't "perfect". I am so blessed, and I am so thankful that the Lord has called me to serve this summer.

As for prayer and support requests...I'm going to repeat a previous one. I've begun to slack again on the verse memorization, and that's no bueno. So PLEASE, ask me how I'm doing. Shoot me an email or give me a call, and help me to be accountable! I feel like the past month has been a total whirlwind, and the weeks just slip by...I have good intentions on Monday, then suddenly I'm waking up Friday morning and realizing that I haven't achieved half of what I had planned for the week.

Also, I will be traveling to London next weekend for my Admit Weekend at LBS. Please pray for a safe and fun trip!

Thank you for your continued support and encouragement!

Love,
Hilary
