I sent the following email out to my supporters, family, and friends, and you may have stopped by here because you received that email. Welcome! I hope you'll stick around, watch the video, and sign up to receive email updates in your inbox!
Friends and Family,
Last week, as I finished up my junior year of college and got ready to calmor into my overflowing car and drive home, a dear friend stopped me and told me about the impact I'd had on her last school year. She said that experience had encouraged her to impact the girls on her hall this school year and she thanked me for the role I had played in her life as she now ministered to others. That was such a blessing!
I realized today that each of you has been that impact for me. Through your support emotionally, mentally, spiritually, physically, financially, and in every other way throughout my life, you have influenced me and inspired me to be an influence on others. Just as God comforts us so we can comfort others (2 Corinthians 1:4), you have all impacted me, so I desire to impact others.
As part of that influencing, I will spend the next ten weeks working at a girls' summer camp in Alabama, loving on some young ladies and having fun with them while encouraging teamwork and spiritual growth. In the fall, I will return to Georgia for one final semester of college before completing my student teaching at Grace International School in Chiang Mai, Thailand from January to April/May 2014. I will return to the states just in time to graduate from Toccoa Falls College in May. As you can see, it's going to be a busy year, but God is good!
I would love for you to join me on this adventure and continue to support and impact me as I go support and impact others. I can't do it without you. I plan to update my blog instead of sending out emails, so if you would like to receive updates, follow my blog at www.AlexsAdventuresinAsia.blogspot.com. You can also sign up to receive posts by email to stay in the loop!
What I need most is your prayers. Prayer requests and praise reports are listed on the left hand side of [this homepage], and I am also asking for people who will commit to prayer as a part of a prayer team. Let me know if you would be interested. The reason this is so important is because Satan does not want people going about God's will and doing God's work. Even seven and a half months before I leave, your prayers are needed because God is already working in Thailand and Asia even now. And He is doing great and wonderful things.
Thank you!--
