Well, my last day at home has arrived. I've spent the last day or so packing, cleaning, and saying goodbye to friends. Tonight I'm having my "last supper" (calzones!) at my mom's house with the family, then heading to my dad's for the night. Tomorrow, we are leaving WAY TOO EARLY to be in Flint for my 6:30am departure. I'm taking the train for the first time, which I'm pretty excited about. I will get to Chicago around 11:30am (so 12:30 MI time).
Support raising went spectacular, again. I was given enough to get the extra things paid for, like travel expenses, weekend meals, etc. Thanks to everyone who is supporting me either financially or with prayer. Your gifts and prayers mean more than words can express.
As always, it is hard to leave my family and friends, but I am excited to get to the city and serve others. I need to stop thinking and dwelling about myself and my life and be reminded of how fortunate I am. I am so thankful for this opportunity and know I will be even more excited once I get there.
The next time I write I will be in the city!
