two weeks!!

I am leaving two weeks from today!! I got my flight information the other day and I am so excited!!!!

My day today has been spent planning and planning things for our ministry in Romania.

Here is a quick look at what things are going to look like, a rough outline of my schedule and some exciting stuff about them.

June 7th- 9:50 p.m. Depart from Detroit Metro Airport leaving for Bucharest, Romania. Layover in Amsterdam.

June 8th- Arrive in Romania, Begin ministry with the Tenderfoot Team

June 29th- Start ministry with the Girls Camp Team, men depart for Backpacking trip in the mountains with the boys.

June 30th-July 10th- Two, four-day camps with older orphan girls. Held at the Girls Transition House in Snagov. We will be discussing with them things like self esteem and self worth, going through some lies that we as women believe and how to respond to the lies with the truth. I will probably be giving my testimony to these groups of girls. =]

July 11th-30th- Combining Forces to create the SUPER TEAM. We will be going to Teleorman County to do ministry there. Staying at the Boys Transition House. We will be spending a week with each the girls orphanage from Alexandria (where I went in summer 2008) and the boys orphanage in Rosiori. Each week we will be spending 4 days doing VBS type ministry, and the last three days doing a carnival at the Boys Transition House (also where I stayed last time).

July 30th-August 6th- Join another camp team that will be doing camps for the other kids at the Girls Transition House.

August 14- Depart Bucharest for home. Layover in Amsterdam, arrive at Detroit Metro Airport at around 3 p.m.

It will be a very packed summer. Planning is coming nicely, I am in charge of games for when the Super Team goes to Alexandria and Rosiori. I am super excited about that. I hope you will all follow along as I take this journey. I don't know how often I will be able to update, but I will as much as I can.

Two Weeks Away.

Oh and by the way... my family is having a going away party for me on Saturday June 5th, starting at 3:00 p.m. all are welcome. It is at their house in Peck. Let me know if you need directions or would like to come.

eighteen days.

so im freaking out. money has been a huge issue for me this time and i am really scared about it. i need more in my account, but i dont really need THAT much more... if everything came through like it should. i hate this waiting part. in all honesty i am scared about it. i am trying to be calm, but its not always working for me. i just wish i didn't need to worry about this so much.

i have 18 days left.
i am excited.


i just wish i could have this paid off.
