One Month and Counting...

So India is officially one month away and counting. Holy cow how did time go by so quickly?? Still it feels totally unreal.

My week in Charleston went well, but I was so incredibly busy! I had to do a few things to prepare for india, like get my liscence changed so the address matched the address on my passport, fill out visa stuff and send all of that off, get some shots that I didn't get last time (polio and hep A).. although I think that was my 3rd time getting the Hep A shot, I just keep forgetting to go back within 6 months to get the 2nd dose lol. I also did 4 photo shoots while I was in town, and 3 of them were in one day! Here are some of my favs from the 4 shoots:

I had a lot of fun working with all these families :)

But back to India... God seems to be doing the same thing He did last time... and it's really teaching me to have faith. When it came time to buy the plane ticket, I had just enough money to pay for the ticket, and now all my support has been spent. So I have just the money from this weekend, which most of it went to cover visa expenses. But I bought the ticket... and I just have to trust in God now that the money is going to come through. I needed $5000... and between jewelry sales, donations, and photo shoots, I had raised around $1700. Now I am back at zero... BUT, God has given me many confirmations on what I am doing, and where I am going. Right when I start to doubt, He reminds me of all that He has done to get me here. So I just have to trust Him :)

Thank you to everyone who has donated to this mission. You play a bigger part in this work than you know!
