...and the adventure begins!

goooooood morning!

i'm currently sitting in the el salvador airport about to board the last leg of my flight to costa rica for my 6-week practicum.

i can't believe how God has been in the middle of every single step of this process and absolutely can't doubt that this is exactly where i am supposed to be. there have been so many confirmations and "praise the LORD!" moments already. for example, today at the airport i didn't get charged for the 3 lbs. my bag was over AND i didn't have to pay $100 for my surfboard! TOTAL miracle. then i got a whole row to myself and made it with plenty of time to spare for my connecting flight. prior to this morning's travels, the connection that i have with dennis and kyle leon (husband and wife, the couple i am working with in costa rica)and how our ministry philosophies line up exactly is amazing. also, the way everything just fell into place from the second i began to pursue this as my practicum...completely God's hand in every detail. it's the first time in a looooong time that it has been this clear, so i am eager to see what adventure unfold along the journey. i guess i'll have to hold on tight because i have a feeling it'll be a wild ride.

thank you for sharing in this adventure. if you are here reading this you are important to me and have truly helped shape me and pour into my life. i wouldn't be who i am now without you...so thanks for partnering with me on this adventure, for believing in me, and for completely loving me. this is going to be...unreal.
