A Crazy Life...

Hey Everyone!

I guess I didn't realize how hard leaving Napa would be. Its been a roller coaster of emotions lately as I am making plans for the summer and preparing to go to Africa.

Oh! As an update, Global Passion Ministries has cancelled my trip to Uganda the first two weeks of July. The trip wasn't receiving enough sign-ups, so no more trip. I was a little disappointed at first, but then was reminded that God is in control and He always has a plan. Apparently, He has other plans for my summer. What is good about not going to Uganda is that I will now be able to go with the students of our youth group to Colorado in July. I wasn't going to get to go because of Uganda and was totally bummed, but now I will be able to take the roadtrip and attend an amazing youth conference at New Life Church in Colorado Springs. I'm really excited!!

I'm trying to stay focused on my job and the ministries I'm involved with at Hillside. It has been a struggle to try and balance everything, but I am doing my best....with God's help. I have the greatest friends and family.....they are sticking with me and helping me snap out of it when I get caught up in the moment and get crazy.

Thank you for the awesome response I have gotten about this blog. For all of you who have promised to be a prayer partner and have made pledges to support me. I am humbled and grateful to God for placing that on your heart.

Please continue to pray that God will bring in the finances. Also, pray for all the changes that are not only happening in my life, but are happening around Hillside. We are moving into a new season at my church and it seems like everyone is going through a lot of changes right now. Please pray for our leadership team and staff as we continue to seek the Lord.

God is teaching me a lot right now. He is speaking to me so much about His love and affection for me. Pray that He will continue to keep my eyes focused on Him and that I will continue to learn how to rely on Him and Him alone.

I love you all so much. Again, thank you for joining with me....my excitment is growing by the day!!

Living in His Will,
Gina :)
