So today I was able to present to my church a bit about why I am going to the Philippines this summer to work it IT Tender.  I said much that is already included in my blog posts and descriptions on this site.  Afterwards everyone was very encouraging and kept saying it was a job well done.  I want to say a huge thank you to them all.  They have watched me grow up from an infant and have always been supporting me in prayer, whether I knew it or not.  They have supported me in my YWAM adventures and continue to support our family in carious other capacities, including the Micah House Walkathon next Saturday (May 31st).  I am very honored to be a part of such a close knit community that often feels like one big family that loves and supports one another in the good and hard times.  Thank you all again for your continued support both prayerfully and financially.  It means a lot to me.
