No backing out now...

Somehow in the midst of working a couple of overtime weeks in a row, driving all over the west for camping trips and visiting friends, I have managed to take the big step forward to the fall. Today, I booked my ticket to Lithuania. I was a little fearful to go ahead and plunk down $1200 dollars when I have just barely begun to raise my support. But, as if God knew I needed confirmation of these plans, just this afternoon, my parents brought over some envelopes from supporters. I opened them, just about fell over from the generosity of the friends I've been blessed with, and suddenly felt okay about booking my ticket.

I don't deserve the support I have been given already. The giving hearts of my friends astound me, and confirms that others also see this next path as the right path for me to head down. I want to share more of my heart and thinking about this whole process, but am currently limited in my internet access to a few precious moments at the local wireless-ly connected shop. I'll write more soon - for my own sake, if none others.
