Happy Canada Day everyone!!  Today is a special day when we celebrate the day our country became recognized as such under the British Empire in 1867.  I am proud to be a Canadian today of all days!  As I get closer and closer to the time of my departure, I am becoming increasingly aware of the blessings I have received in prayers and donations.  I am getting so close to my fundraising goal it is mind boggling, and there is still a month left.  I want to say thank you, from the bottom of my heart for all your kind support.  

As I prepare for my trip and experience in the Philippines I am reminded of Micah Witt, who is en route to Manila as I type this, to partake with IT Tender in their ministries as I will be doing in August.  I ask that you lift him and his parents up in your prayers as they travel and for Micah as he experiences for the first time the culture of the Philippines.  Pray that God uses this time to give him a clearer vision of the plan for his life and opens his eyes to more of His glory and power across the world.
