i love weekends

wow. it's amazing what comments on a blog will do! i feel so much better! thanks guys.
well it was another wonderful weekend! i was able to cram an excessive amount of information into my head (20 pages worth to be exact) for a test today. i'd like to thank katie for the perfect study technique, francis at ihop for the endless cups of coffee and water in the freezer, and brandon for picking up the tab sunday night! i couldn't have learned all i did without you guys! now lets hope all of this pays off on the test i'll take in a couple of hours! i would also like to mention the hysterical fact that up until this past sunday night katie fontenot thought ghandi was a magician. don't be too hard on her...she was raised in a foreign country.
on sunday i was able to hear from one of the most dynamic speakers i have ever heard! perhaps you've heard of him??...pastor tyler tullos...amazing! he answered so gracefully the question we've all asked...why is life not fair? and i loved his answer..."it's not not so much our problem we should worry about but our perspective. God always has a promise for us and this should be our focus...the promise!" i was so blessed! thank you pastor tyler!

this weekend i also got to hang out with one of my most favorite people, my brilliant, beautiful cousin/sister, cara! it was so great to see her...she brings me such joy! here we are at pf changs with katie friday night!

we leave for africa in 4 days now! it's really starting to hit me! i've never been this far away before! if you're interested here are a few ways you can pray for our team...unity among us, discernment for us, protection, and healing for brandon's back. thank you so much. and also thank to everyone who has supported us financially for this trip...the way God provides for his people through each other amazes me...thanks for being obedient!
