Reagan's Passport...

I cannot believe we are nearing the end of January!!  So many firsts are happening, but the two big ones...I get to take Reagan to Uganda, and I get to work for Healing Faith!!!!!

We are beginning to really prepare for this journey.  We pray together often, asking for the Lord to keep our eyes and ears open for His leading and preparation.  I have been coaching her to Boldly pray for things regarding this trip...I love hearing her pray.

As it gets closer there will be milestones on this journey together.  The first one:Getting her Passport!!!

She got to leave school, take the short drive to the College Station Post office, and apply for her first passport ever!

I cannot tell you the immense joy I am receiving by sharing these experiences with her.  Her sweet servants heart.  I am a blessed mommy for sure!

Here are some pictures of our trip to get her passport!



Reagan has also drafted her own support letter that I am going to share with you.  A support letter is so important for so many reasons.  One, is of course the obvious...fundraising.  However, these letters mean so much more!! 
Some of you have been supporting me financially and/or thru prayers since I went on my first mission trip (thank you!!), and I want to continue to keep you updated on what the Lord has allowed you and I to partner in doing!  You saw that right!  You AND I!!
As a prayer warrior and/or a financial supporter, you are a HUGE partner in what happens!! The Lord does not want one person to gain the glory from anything done in His name.  He makes sure there are multiple players!  This way I can NEVER boast to say "look what I did!" NO NO!  It is always, look what the LORD did thru us!
These letters are important for those going on mission trips, to not rely on themselves, but the Lord for His provision, and to allow others to be a part in these glorious journeys!
I was thrilled to be able to lend a little knowledge to Reagan that I have been blessed with thru my journey in this way.  Teaching her to write a support letter, from her heart, in her words...

Reagan hard at work, writing her support letter!!


Dear family and friends,

  Recently my mom and dad have agreed to let me go to Uganda Africa. I think that this will give me more wisdom for later on however, this will also give me a chance to say that it’s not all about me. While we are in Uganda we will be working with a ministry called Healing Faith, Healing Faith is a ministry founded by Kari and Jason Segner and their four kids well, now 5 because they just adopted a little African boy now isn’t that sweet. Healing Faith works in the villages outside of Uganda. They set up clinics and teach about malaria a disease caused by mosquitoes. We are going to go and hang malaria nets in the huts and teach them how to prevent from getting malaria. I’ll have a chance to play with the kids and get a glimpse of what it’s like to live in Uganda. I would love for you to support me financially and most importantly in prayer I love you all bye! C:
