So I leave Pembroke tomorrow morning to spend the next 2 days with my family before I leave for orientation then to E. St. louis. I am so so soooo excited. The Lord has done a tremendous work in my life up to this point and I am SO READY to see the impact this summer will have on me, as well as all the children I'll be working with this summer! I am trying so hard to cherrish each moment and not wish them away at this point but I am ready to GO! Im ready to do work for the Lord, Im ready to build those relationships!
My suitcase is almost full, and I've got almost everything ready. Im going to miss good ol Pembroke- I love this place, But i'll be back soon enough. :)
Goal 2: remind me daily, I am nothing without Jesus Christ. It is not by my works, but His.
"The spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lrod has anointed me to bring good news to the poor; he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and the opening of the prision to those who are bound; to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor, and the day of vengeance of our God to comfort all who mourn." [[Isaiah 61:1-2]]

I feel the exact same way! I'm so ready to go. Pretty much everything you said, that's how I feel. Plus, I get to see you in a couple of days! YAY!
Again I say, I'll be praying for you. I'd like to share 1 Chronicles 16:18-36 with you, one of my favourite Great Commission passages.

Allison...don't forget to pack my letter..you can read once you get on the plane in route for East St. Louis...I love you and will most definitely be praying for you and anytime you may doubt go back and read my letter while you are on your mission trip because it will remind you of the real reason why you are there this summer!! I love you!
