Prayer Please!

I just wanted to let everyone on here know that my team & I are going to be leaving for Guatemala in 25 hours! This preparation time has come to a halt, and I am so thankful for everything that God has been teaching me these last few months and weeks especially. The Lord is really going to do a great thing this coming week, and one thing that I wish for is to witness a miracle, and I know MY God can do that! I have collected a bunch of American T-shirts and hats, etc. for the children and adults down there, and I really hope that I get to see them receive these gifts from my family, friends and I, because I know how much it will mean to them, and they will all look just precious. These clothes could not be put to better use.

I ask you to pray that our flight will arrive safely in Atlanta, GA and Guatemala City going to and from our destination. I pray that we are able to be witnesses for Christ on the way to Guatemala and on the way back. I ask you to pray that we can be bold for Christ in both word & deed while we are traveling, and that God will grant us safety and ease when getting across the border(s). I pray that God will work in the heart of these children and adults while we are there and also in my team members' hearts as well. I cannot wait to return with pictures and stories. Until then...

Romans 10:14 (New International Version)

14How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?

En46le


IJM - Reality of Human Trafficking from International Justice Mission on Vimeo.

46 was inspired by the desire to do something worthwhile and creative. It is an effort to make a difference in the fight to improve the lives of children worldwide. We are in the process of developing additional programs like the en46le & lov46le projects. Our commitment is to give 4 the benefit of these 6 areas of need: abuse, poverty, disease, birth defects, education and nutrition/physical fitness.

If you would like to get involved by simply ordering a T-shirt, go to www.46nyc.com. 100% of the proceeds go to helping people all across the world that suffer from these 6 areas of need mentioned above. Join the fight with me!

The Boys' First Time in Real Snow*



Colby & Otis have seen snow before, but nothing like this! It was so cute to see them hopping and running around (to the best of their ability). I just had to share this video. Enjoy!
