Getting ready

So I have always wanted to try blogging, but as most of you know my grammar and writing skills are lacking. However, I am getting ready to leave on a mission trip to Peru so I thought now was a great time to start my blog. I hope you enjoy what you read. I hope some if it makes you laugh and some makes you think but most of all I just want to share my life with others.

As I said I am getting ready to leave for a mission trip to Peru. We leave on Thursday the 2 and will return on Tuesday the 14. I am super excited this is going to be my first international mission trip to go on and I am so blessed to be going with the group I am going with. There are seven of us from Woodland Park Baptist Church and then some more from the NOBTS. We will be traveling to Lima, Peru and then to Huancayo. We will cross over the Andes mountains reaching a attitude of 15,000 ft! Once we get there we will be teaching the pastor and their wives different aspects of ministry. Then on the last day we will be going out on the streets to evanglize and to the schools. So please be praying for us as we travel and as we teach our lessons and tell others about Jesus.

On a more personal note, if you could also pray for my family. My granddaddy's(my mom's dad) bladder cancer has returned and this time it is in the musle and is only removable if they take the whole bladder. So he will be in surgery on Monday while I am away and my grandma (his wife) is in a nursing home for physical theapry because she had a hip replacement. And she is really not happy there and is ready to get home. Saying all that to ask please be praying for them, the doctors and for my family and for a peace for me while I am in Peru.

Anyway, I guess I better get going I have to have my bags packed and ready to go for tomorrow night and since I am working all day tomorrow that means I have to have most of my stuff packed tonight.
