Previously this blog was used as a place of reflection and update while I was in Sierra Leone in 2006. However, I'm starting to use it again now for a new travel experience. I will be in Israel June 2nd-July 3rd working on an archaeological dig and touring around the country. This blog's purpose is to keep people updated and reflect on time spent in the Holy Land.

i made it

Today I had to have $2000 more than what I had last week in order to go to Sierra Leone.
TODAY I talked with people at AU and they told me I have recieved a grant for $1900. That plus the money that people have sent in this past week exceeded what I needed to have in today! Praise God! I was honestly nervous for a while there. It is my mistake to ever doubt what God promises. Right now I am finishing my last paper and will make my reading deadline for today as well. I have read so much and am still processing it all. God has really challenged me in several aspects. I am going to make this short and sweet. This is what I am trying to strive for:
"A society that welcomes people of all races and social classes, that is characterized by love not polarization, that cares most for its weakest members, that stands for justice and righteousness in a world enamored with selfishness and decadence, a society in which members compete for the privilege of serving one another-that is what Jesus meant by the kingdom of God." -The Jesus I Never Knew by Phillip Yancy

May God bless you
