New post for Monday

We are now within one week from our trip to Central Asia. I finished my immunizations today with an MMR booster, Hepatitis A & B and a Tetanus shot. I guess I'm glad I'm not scared of needles or today would have been a rough day. Now I am officially immunized (is that a word?) for my trip.

We have begun official trip planning now with organizing all of the items I will need and they have their own place in my house now. It is becoming pretty real now. The money will be turned in tonight and I am so thankful for all those who were able to support me financially. It really eased some of the burden to raise about half the money I needed. Thank you to everyone who contributed. Without you, I would not be able to go on this trip.

Yesterday, we had the opportunity to hear John Harris at our church. For those who don't know John, he has recently gone into complete remission from cancer. What a great story he told about the last 6 months or so of his life and how he became so much closer to God through this experience. God has healed him. What an amazing story. John, continue to share your story my friend. You can impact the world. God has given you something to glorify Him. What a blessing.

Thank you everyone and speak to you tomorrow.
