New to this.....

So, not sure how this is going to turn out, but I am going to give it a shot! I have been informed that this is the best way to keep everyone up to date on my future mission trips. I am not great with words, but I feel like I can at least let you guys know what is going on while I am away.

"Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world."
                                                                               James 1:27 NKJV

I am SO looking forward to my trip to El Salvador next week! My friend Merany and I will be leaving from Memphis on Monday morning at 6am and should be in ES some time around 1 or 2pm. While we are there we will be working in a few orphanages or centers . A boys' center, a special needs center, and an 'intake' center. The intake center is where the kids come in from the streets, hospitals, or homes where they can not stay due to abuse, poverty or any other reason. I have only seen pictures of the way things are 'run' in El Salvador and I can already let all of you know we take SO MANY things for granted!

I want to ask each of you to begin praying for this trip! I know God has something in store, not only for those that are in ES, but also for Merany and I. Pray that those children will FEEL the LOVE we have to offer, pray for peace in their life, and pray that we will be placed in God's will while we are gone.
