Less than a month!

It's hard to believe we leave in less than a month! We are getting more and more excited as the time approaches. I'm packing up the house more and more everyday. It's bittersweet. It's hard to leave our first home but very exciting to make steps in the direction that God is calling us. We found ourselves getting a little overwhelmed a couple of weeks back. All of our thoughts were around what money we had raised, what money we still needed, what to pack and when and all the things that go along with a process like this.
    We quickly humbled ourselves in prayer to refocus our attention on the only thing that matters and the whole reason we're going to Colorado in the first place. We needed to put our cares, troubles and thoughts to Jesus and the call to carry His name. Even though we were thinking about our ministry, we took our eyes off of Him and giving Him continuous praise just for a moment but it was long enough to make our human selves stress out. Please pray that we continue to put Him first throughout the entire process.
Update with exciting news to share: we have completely paid for the lecture phase! $6,490! We've even got some money already going for outreach. We have until June 7 to cover the remaining balance. He will get us there! Praise God from whom ALL blessings flow!
