“The heart of man
plans his way,
but the Lord establishes his steps.”
~Proverbs 16:9
These past few months God has been showing me the truth of this
verse in my life. My heart had planned out my way, but God has established my
steps in His perfect timing.
God has poured down His provision for the OM
Lifehope ministry I’ll be a part of in England.
I am currently sitting at 98% of needed funds with only $35/month still needed
to be raised! All praise be to God!
I have now been given approval by OM to purchase my plane tickets,
and I’ll be flying out of Denver Sunday, January 13, 2013
and arriving in Frankfurt, Germany the
following day. The GO conference I’ll be attending starts January 15th so I will have an extra day to rest,
relax, and acclimate to the 8-hour time difference.
I’ll be in Mosbach, Germany (about 2 hours
from Frankfurt)
for 10 days of training and ministry orientation at the GO conference. Then on
January 26th I’ll be
headed off to my new home for the next 2 years in Halesowen, England.
Once in England I’ll have more in-depth
training and orientation specific to the ministry of OM Lifehope. I found a great 7 minute video that gives a
description of what the first 3 weeks in England will look like
for me and a basic explanation of some of the ministries within OM Lifehope: http://lifehope.om.org/index.php/community-outreach-video.
They don’t go into detail about the youth track which I’ll be a part of, but as
part of OM Lifehope I will also be involved in many of the other ministries
they do mention in the video.
God has been so faithful to me throughout this process thus far
and continues to reaffirm the call I have felt Him place on my life. He has
provided a means for me to go, has done work within my heart and life in
preparation for the ministry I’ll be joining in England,
and has blessed me with amazing people who have encouraged me in taking this
step of faith. I thank you all so much for the prayers, encouragement, and
support you have given thus far, and I ask that you continue to do so. As I
prepare to embark on this new journey I covet your prayers and support. I’ll do
my best to keep my blog updated and keep you all informed of what’s going on in
my life and ministry with OM Lifehope. I’d
also love to hear from you! Please
keep in touch, let me know if you have any prayer requests, what’s going on in
your life, how the family is doing etc.
Thank you all
again for your prayers and support. I look forward to getting to share with you
about the work God is doing in the UK and in my life
and getting to hear about what He is doing in each of your lives as well.
