Countdown

In only 16 short days, I will be traveling to El Salvador for six weeks. While I am excited to see how God uses me and what he has in store, I also have my reservations about this trip. I have a sneaking suspicion that God is really going to rock my world during these six short weeks, and I'm not sure I'm ready for it.

Starting May 7th, I'll be in Marion, IN for orientation with WGM, World Gospel Mission. This years theme is "Answering the Call." How appropriate right? Orientation is four days, and I believe 14 people are attending. Then on May 11th, Lainey and I head to El Salvador. Lainey is a sophomore at Montana State who will be traveling with me to El Salvador. While there, we'll be staying with a Honduran family, who thankfully speaks english. We'll eat our meals with missionaries Debbie and David Hawk, you can read about them here: http://www.wgm.org/page.aspx?pid=895. I'll be working in the medical clinic there, and Lainey will be teaching ESL. I feel like there is so much to do in preparation, but right now I can only pray that God will prepare my heart to listen and discern his call.

Please keep us in your prayers!
