Today's the Day!!!

It's finally here!!! I'm finally returning to my most favorite place in the world...Guatemala!!!!

I finished packing last night...got everything in one suitcase (only 49lbs!), one carry on bag, and one "personal item" (but that's really just a smaller carry on bag haha).

Now, at 6:00 in the morning, my mom is driving me to the Tampa airport where I'll meet up with one of my fellow interns. Then we'll head to Miami to meet up with Howie and our other fellow intern. I'm so excited to meet the girls I'll be working with for the next 5 weeks!

I've gotta go now before I get carsick from staring at my phone...that wouldn't be a great way to start my trip (although it is how I ended it last time). Can't wait to be back with my friends and all my babies! I'll keep you updated here!

Love Always,
Rachel

16 days!!!!!!! Donations and Prayer Partners

In only 16 days I will be headed back to Guatemala!!! I can't wait to get back to the center and see all my kids and friends there!

I am in need of two things: donations (every little bit helps!) and prayer partners!

If you are able to donate I would appreciate it so so much! If you are unable to donate, please share this page and help me spread the word. (Ways to donate are listed at the end of this post.)

Whether you are able to donate or not,  I ask that you would consider being a prayer partner. It's simple: you just have to pray for me each day until I return from my internship. I am looking for at least 5 people who are will to commit to pray daily that I will remain healthy, that I will be open to what God is showing me (and that I'll be able to see it), that I'll be able to show God's love to everyone I come in contact with and be the hands and feet of Jesus, that I have safe travels throughout my internship, for any specific requests I post here on my blog, and anything else you'd like to pray on my behalf.

If you would like to be a prayer partner, just let me know! You can comment on this blog, message me on Facebook, email me, call or text, tell me in person, or use whatever form of communication you'd like. I will be keeping this blog updated during my internship and will list any specific prayer requests I have.
