One week from today I will be boarding a plane bound for Rwanda (well, London, then Kenya, then finally Rwanda..). I feel a lot more peace than I thought I would at this point, and I'm getting more excited everyday. My pre-trip "to do" list is getting accomplished, and I started saying goodbye to family and friends with a wonderful trip to Chicago this past week.
I want to thank each and every one of you for the support you've shown me these last few weeks through your prayers, encouragement and financial contributions. I am so blessed to be surrounded by friends and family who are so invested in my life and in the work God is doing around the world.
It is my hope to use this blog as a way to share both prayer requests and testimonies to the work God is doing while I am in Rwanda. At this moment I am not sure how often I will be able to update this blog, but I am hoping that it will be feasible at least weekly.
Specific prayer requests right now are for ease in finishing up final preparations (visas, immunizations, plane tickets), and that I would be sensitive this week especially to how God would be preparing my heart and mind for this trip. Also be praying for those I will be working with when I get to Rwanda, both FH staff and individuals we will be ministering to.
thank you again for all your support! hopefully I'll get better at this whole blogging thing..
Hillary
