Miraculous Miracles for Missions :)

God keeps making the way clear for this mission trip to India...

The mission trip coordinator emailed that there were 4 openings for this trip. So, I took a couple days to pray and be sure that I felt like God wanted me to go. Sunday I emailed the coordinator to let him know I was committed to going if there was still an opening. I was the 5th person to email... all 4 spots had been filled, but he'd let me know if anything changed. I thought "Well, if God wants me there He'll make a way. If not, then I'm not meant to go."
A few hours later the coordinator let me know that I was selected to be part of the crew to go to India... there are now 5 people going. Ok, God, I read you LOUD and CLEAR, You want me in India... confirmation after confirmation- things that the layman would call "coincidence" are faith building, peace instilling, confirmation from God that this mission trip is something He wants me to do.

So the next big confirmation and miracle He will astound us with is fund raising $1750 before I fly out March 2... that's really soon!

Already I have one commitment for a $100 donation towards my missions trip- that means I just need 16 more people to donate $100 each, or 32 people to donate $50 each... God is SO big :) Will He use you to get me to India?

Details about the mission trip: Missionary families will travel to New Delhi from various places around the world, including India, China, and Indonesia March 2-10. This week provides them with continued education and training to complete their studies as well as increase in ministry effectiveness where they are serving. Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary (SEBTS- where Kellen is getting his Masters of Divinity) offers these classes/training every year at different locations.
I’m blessed to be part of a team who will provide childcare for these missionary children. This will free up the wives to share in times of training, encouragement, and spiritual enrichment. The time in New Delhi also allows me to connect more deeply with missionaries in order to pray more effectively for them, their ministries, and their people groups. Also, there will be 5-6 missionary families from our church, North Wake.

I am SO excited to get to go and be a part of this. Thanks for your prayers and for considering how God can use you :)
