God is faithful

I'm really not good at keep this updated, so my apologies if you have been checking this, and nothing new has appeared!
God has brought me though a rather stressful last week and a bit. Phew, I'm glad it's over! But God is so good through it all, giving me the energy I needed when I clearly wasn't working on a good amount of sleep! :)
Things are getting into full swing, for this summer. And I'm loving it! I'm still working on my support raising, and am still trusting God to provide. I will not doubt His ability to provide.
I am also working with 4 other 1 and 2 year girls who are going to be a part of the team this summer and have been support coaching them, helping them to get things ready, answering their questions and encouraging them in their suppor raising. It's been stretching (already!) but I have loved getting to know girls. I had the chance to meet a couple of them last week, when I visited McMaster, so that was really cool!
Just a few cool stories that I want to share...
A girl in my English class, Pam, who I have gotten to know better over the year, was asking about my summer. So I was telling her how i was doing missions work in Africa, and we got into a good (but quick, as class started) conversation about what I will be doing. I hope that we can talk more about it!
Also, when i went today to get my immunmizations, both of the nurses that I met with, were Christians. So it was encouraging to be able to talk to them and share with them what I will be doing this summer. And the one nurse was talking about how she wished that she would have done missions when she was a young adult and was talking about doing Doctors without Borders. God just brings the coolest people in our paths, and that is exciting!
When we let ourselves be in tune with God, we can see so many blessings that He provides to us...but we need to slow down and "see" them.
I covet your prayers, as God continues to prepare for Africa!
