Well first of all, plans have kind of changed for my mission trip. I was on the phone with one of the organizers of our trip and she said that Experience Mission had decided to change our last stop from Costa Rica to Belize! I mean I was very excited about Costa Rica because I had actually been there before but it's kinda too like to back out now. Plus now I get to add another country to my list. (In case you were curious, after this trip I will have been to 14 countries!) But I did join a facebook group with my other team members. I haven't actually talked to any of my future friends yet but it's only been a couple days. I got time!
Also, the other day I informally informed work that I was leaving. I had really been avoiding it because I am not the biggest fan of confrontation but it actually went better than I expecting. It's nice having managers that can be so excited and understanding about me participating on a 6 month mission trip. They said they would miss me of course. I mean who isn't going to. Hopefully they will let me come back when I return because I do actually kind of like it there.
On a more deep and spiritual note, recently I have felt very challenged to really focus on my relationship with God. My biggest fear would be feeling inadequate to answer questions people may ask me on my mission trip. Yes, I know we will never have all the answers but I want to make sure I am ready for God to use me whenever. It's not only helping me feel prepared for my future but I've been having less and less doubts about my trip. Funny how that happens!
Days left: 93! It's getting closer!!!
