Greater than numbers

God has been so faithful to everyone here at Hawaii SP! Like what I had said in the last post, we were down about $60,000 and I personally still had a good amount to raise! I was scared for a bit that my friends from SLO weren't going to be able to go because they weren't ANYWHERE close to the $4000 mark they wanted us to reach by 5pm on Saturday. But God was faithful. God provided.

In less than 24 hours our team raised over $34,000. This amount shows nothing but the power of God! I can't even tell you how encouraging it was to see everyone from our team constantly calling, emailing, and im-ing people until the late hours of the night! The love of God is so evident in this place through the staff and students, and it's just an amazing experience, especially since this has only been day 2 of briefing!

I just want to thank all of you that have been supporting me! God has blessed me with amazing people in my life, those willing to call others up, those keeping my team and me in prayers, and those really trusting that God will use this money raised for His glory!! Thank you SO MUCH again for all your prayers and support! I am truly encouraged by the community that God has provided!

It's crazy to think, but I'm going to be leaving from Vanguard University to LAX in less than 3 hours!! (4:15 am....so early!!). Just wanted to end with a few praises/prayer requests:

Praises:
- God provides - Everyone is going to be able to go to Hawaii!!!!!!! Praise God!
- Giving us strength and perseverance
- Giving us hope and encouragement
- Providing an awesome community (already!!)

Prayer Requests:
- Safe flight
- God would be preparing our hearts, and the hearts of those that we will be speaking to!
- Support Raising - the remaining total for each person
- Rest and strength throughout the next couple weeks!

Thank you so much for supporting me!! You are awesome! I would love to hear any prayer requests you may have!


PS. I'm still raising support this summer and still need about $650 left to be fully supported!
