The beginning of summer missions 2009!

Guess what?! I'm going to Korea! To live with the kids in the children's home for 2 months! how awesome and how frightening is that? I haven't found out about what home I'll be placed yet nor who my partner will be, but all is set. I even bought my plane ticket. So cool story...

The first time I tried to look into roundtrip tickets to Korea.. it was a hefty 1700! That's probably more than my whole year's rent. Then people advised me to look around. And can I tell you, I love travel agencies! You just call them and tell them what dates you want to leave/return and they just do all the research for you and usually offer you a much better price! And the best part is... they do it for free! I love travel agencies. If you need one let me know, I called like 10 of them, muhahahhaah~ So I ended up getting tickets for like 500 less! PRAAISSEEE the Lawd! Apparently, to get it for that price is "dirt cheap" said John-Michael (the person in charge of the missions). 1200 = dirt cheap (me = dry laughter).

So prayer, even a very small one, works. I felt that I hadn't nearly prayed enough but God truly provides. He's very generous that way. So logically, I should be praying for everything all the time. And that is what I hope to be doing leading up to the trip and onward. Jesus help me to pray! seriously.
