Movies






I am speaking at my home church on 22 May. I'm sharing about 5 minutes about my past trip and my upcoming trip. I also, after weeks of dumb computers, have made this video to show some visual of what God did while I was over there! Thank you for your continued support through this adventure! The weekend before that I am speaking in WV at my Uncle's church to share what I am doing as well. I'm excited about that because I will get to see my cousins, Aunts, and Uncles!

I'm already starting to get letters back! One of which is from a family I babysat for during the summer I turned 13! Now the little girl is 13 and 2 more kids were added to the bunch. It's fun to catch up with people!

VISA UPDATE: I forgot to put my middle name on the application so I had to get my passport notarized. By the time I got it all worked out it was approved within 12 hours!!!!!

God has put such amazing friends in my life over the last few months. I have never really had friends that we can joke around and be completely silly with and then have a serious 3 hour conversation about how amazing our God is. ALSO!!!! I am watching two little girls while their mom goes back to work. Keegan is 3, Ryann is 2 months. They are such a blessing.

I have a few prayer requests:
That I would follow through 100% with speaking about my trip, no half hearted stuff.
That a plan ticket would be provided
God is glorified through my words and actions over the next few months.
And that people would see why I'm doing what I'm doing, to glorify Jesus.
One last one, that my heart would stay focused on Jesus.


Side note: My brother is a firefighter and was fighting in a structure in our neighborhood and the roof collapsed. He WALKED out of the building but apparently was over heated and threw up. His officer told him he was going to the hospital. He has a mild concussion, but no burns or other serious injuries. Matthew, for those of you who know who he is, called me and told me just in case I hadn't heard that Zach was being transported but to his knowledge was ok! Matt then said that my brother was a good firefighter and that he was proud of him. (: It's good to hear from someone who has been doing it for 12 years that Zach is doing a good job. This was such a blessing. Zach is currently sleeping on our couch and is safely home! Thank you to all of those who prayed for him!


Okay, I believe that that is all for right now. Let me know if you have any questions!
Love you all!
Shannon
