funds update!

..i leave in just 19 days give or take the hours. i can't believe how soon that really is!
i'll go into more detail later.. but it's really been overwhelming sorting out how this is all going to work out and where my heart's at in this. work has been unpredictable, but God's been so faithful.. as i was told tonight that today was my last official shift besides some odd jobs on the side once in a while, i felt the strain of needing to meet the deadline in such a short amount of time. i panicked and stressed for quite a while driving home from a friend's.
as soon as i got home, i checked the mailbox, and an envelope with $200 was inside.
it was sort of a , "shut up and trust me." moment, where i stepped back and realized that no matter how tight financial situations seem right now, God's in control, and i know he'll provide. needless to say, it was really humbling.

i have a total of $4439.89 as of june 24!
This means that the plain ticket is completely covered (it came to about $2321.29)
, and 2118.60 of the school covered - leaving a remainder of just 381.40 to match that.
the outreach amount has not been confirmed, but is standing around $1500, plus the need for about $500 living funds during my stay.
thanks to everyone who's been praying and supporting me, if i haven't already said so. even if i have, thank you thank you thank you. you're such a blessing. :)
