Oh, how time flies! - Photo

It seems like life has been SO busy lately! Since the last time I posted, I went to visit Josh in Oklahoma. I met his parents and his brother and sister-in-law (who crack me up, by the way). It was awesome and I miss him SO much! This is definitely a God-ordained relationship and it feels like we've known eachother forever. We've prayed and fasted about it and we think we're going to get married. Now the question is when. Right now, he's a missionary associate to the Ukraine and I'm headed to El Salvador. Please be in prayer with us about this. We are seeking God's will over our lives and His timing over our relationship.

This past weekend I had two services at two different churches over in Tampa thanks to a friend of mine from El Salvador, Carlos Valle. They were both Spanish services and I was super nervous because I hadn't used my Spanish since last summer really. After a few bumps along the way, I got to share about the need in El Salvador and share a passion for missions. In the second service, they also let me go in and share with the youth. I talked about Speed the Light and how they can help support missionaries and the missions programs right now by giving to Speed the Light (see my earlier post about STL and what they do). Carlos also gave me some airtime on two local Christian radio stations to share about the need in El Salvador, King's Castle Ministries, and what I'll be doing there. Two programs were in Spanish and one was in English. It was really neat to be given that opportunity to speak to a ton of people that I've never met! Anyhow, over $200 was raised and I pray that hundreds of people have caught the vision of missions "right here and right now."


I leave Saturday for Oklahoma. Josh is graduating from Southwestern Assemblies of God University with his masters degree in Theology. So I'm headed first to Oklahoma to spend time with him and his family and then we're driving down to Dallas for his graduation. I'll fly back on the 3rd because I have a service at Life Assembly of God in Kissimmee on May 4th.


Please be in prayer for Josh as he is in Colorado and Utah this week speaking at churches and raising funds as well as going to District Council. Please pray that God will annoint his lips as he preaches and give him favor in the eyes of others. Also, pray for me for safe travels and for the service on the 4th. I appreciate all of your prayers!
