In one week from today we will be leaving for Ghana! I can't believe it is almost time to go!! I have spent time packing, and repacking, and shopping for the things I need. I can't help but feel there is something I am forgetting. But, I am leaving it with the Lord and praying he will help me bring everything I will need.
Tomorrow Ruth and I will be getting together to make sure we have everything packed that we will need. We will see how successful we can be at sharing a suitcase and keeping it under 50 pounds. We are lucky enough to be able to wash our clothing while in Accra, Ghana, which makes it easier to pack. We only need to pack 1/2 the amount of clothing we will need.
I cannot wait to see what God has in store for us! I am excited and anxious at the same time. My biggest fear as of right now is the flight. I have never flown before and cannot help but to worry about the flight(s). I know we are in God's hands, and I do find comfort in that fact; however, I cannot help but let the human emotions come through. I'm sure everything will be just fine and I will be able to laugh at my worries once I'm home.
I would like to thank everyone who has helped me get this far (financially and prayerfully). I could not have done this without each and every one of you... and could not continue my preparations to go. Thank you all and may God bless you!!!!!
