Transition coming really soon...

In about 6 weeks I will be graduating from IHOPU with a certificate from the Forerunner Justice Program! It has been such an adventure...a year ago while in my 3rd year with the Justice Program the idea of moving to the inner city of Kansas City for our 4th year of school was presented to us. This idea was completely off my radar and never would of imagined that I would do it. Little did I know that decision was going to transition me into one of the most exciting adventures of my life thus far! In May 2010 I moved from a really comfortable house near IHOP to the inner city in one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in Kansas City. It was extremely hard! The year is almost over and my whole idea of the inner city has changed. It is not what people think it is. I love the inner city! Hope City is right down from my apartment and I know that the prayers that are going up are actually making a difference. I will be leaving in July, but my hope is to move back into the inner city when I get done with my midwifery training.

July will be here soon...
I am currently doing all that I know to raise $11,225 before August 1st and reach the goal of raising $900 in monthly support for my midwifery training in the Philippines. This is one of the largest amounts of money that I have ever raised, but my heavenly Father is SO RICH and I will continually remind my little heart that He will provide for me! If you are interested in partnering with Him in this please do so! :) I look forward to using this blog to keep everyone posted on what the Lord is doing in me and through me. Please pray for me if you think about it. I am need of a lot of grace right now to finish strong with my IHOPU schooling and prepare to leave the country for two years. I do feel a little overwhelmed, but my prayer is that I would be led to the ROCK that is higher than I.
