Moving Forward

Recently, Noel and I put together a fundraiser on Skip Heeter's boat. We hosted a Saturday sunset cruise on the Sylvan Spirit. We were pleasantly surprised when more than thirty people showed up to support our event. We cruised around Guemes Island and watched the sun set. Most of all, it was a wonderful time of fellowship with finger food potluck with everyone . There was an opportunity for people to put orders for baked goods. We raised $600.00 from this sunset cruise. Praise God!!



The cruise was windy but still fun!

We're leaving June 20th and the time is rapidly approaching. There is still a lot of preparation and planning we have to do but we know that God  will see us through it all. Noel and I are really excited but still nervous about traveling for the first time together and adjusting to a new culture for two months. Even though Noel and I both went to the Philippines on a mission trip with our youth group, preparing for this mission is a different story. This is our mission...we're leading it and it's a lot of pressure. However, we have many family and friends supporting us. We're so thankful and blessed to have our church family praying and encouraging us. I personally feel so blessed and confident in this journey knowing that there are people who want to know more about the trip and are committed to praying for us.
