Newsletters July 21, 2008

Most anyone who reads my site is probably signed up to receive my newsletters, but I thought I would let you know that I’ve now put the last two newsletters up on the site. It is under “Newsletters” at the top of the page. Genius idea, huh? You are always amazed by my brain, I know.

Random, humorous story but kind of wrong. At work last week, I was saving updated pictures of children in our sponsorship program. Each year they send in a new photo so we can send it to their sponsors. Well, one especially stood out to me. There was a teenage boy with a t-shirt on that said, “Good girls go to Heaven, bad girls go to my room”. Yes, that’s right. These kids get free clothes all the time so, no doubt, he had no idea what it meant but it still made us giggle a little bit. I’m always entertained by my work!

 
 

Welcome to my face… July 16, 2008

So check out that awesome header! My amazing graphic designer friend, James made it.  He’s good, eh?  Then my awesome website-y friend, Ryan put it up.  Because I am retarded in website lingo…I had no idea how to put the header on the site.  Good thing Ryan is a genius. 

I’m sorry I’m the worst person ever at updating the website.  I promise I’ll be better when I have more to update you on.  I am still slowly building my prayer and financial team.  I’ve added more recently and am in talks with a few churches who are interested in joining my team as well.  God has used many little things to encourage me and I’m so grateful for that! I am no longer going to be leaving in August.  My next, and final, leave date will be in January.  That means I have a final six months to build my team before time runs out with Wycliffe.  I ask you guys to be in earnest prayer.  The desire of my heart is to be overseas so I am just trying to daily wait on God’s timing.  Thanks for being there for me and offering encouraging words and prayers on my behalf!  I love you guys.
