Thanks for the encouragement

Ah, its so encouraging to see that so many of my friends are following this blog. I do have a few updates though. Firstly, i now know my departure date, September 14. (less than a month i know!). Talking to one of the team members i'm in contact with, we finalized my plans which are as follows: i will be spending 3 months in Chile (Sep14 through Dec 18), and upon the conclusion of those three months i have the options of either coming back to the states, staying on for another 2-3 months doing an inter-mural program of sorts with the kids during their summer vacation, or traveling to Ecuador to in a similar situation at a local school there.
I still need to raise about 2 thousand dollars if i want to be able to stay any longer than three months, but if its part of the plan, God will provide. Thank you for your prayers and support thus far. Everywhere i go i get a smile and a hug from a person who cares about my life and wants to hear more about my trip. Its the best. Please continue to tell your friends about this blog! God Bless.
