only a day away...

I don't think it has fully hit me yet that tomorrow at this time I will be in Haiti. I'm extremely excited and mostly ready for it to be here! I honestly feel a little bit like a kid on Christmas Eve...falling asleep tonight will probably be difficult!

Of course I'm a little nervous too. Perhaps seeing the movie Taken didn't do too much to calm my nerves about traveling alone to the poorest country in the western hemisphere (and did the main character's name have to be Kim? honestly?!) But more than nervous, I'm glad that I can trust in a God who is sovereign and has His hand over this entire thing. And on that note, any prayers for safe travels are greatly appreciated... :)

So I'll be in Haiti for the next 3 weeks and will do my best to keep you guys posted on what's happening. You'll have to cut me some slack if I'm not that great at posting...(it has been awhile since my Xanga days). But with Becca there, hopefully she can keep me on top of my game.

I am so thankful and blessed by everyone who helped me get to this point. This trip truly couldn't have happened without your love and support! You are all so amazing, and I'm excited to let you know what God does over these next few weeks. Love you all!

CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU BEC!

  1. KIM!! I seriously got so excited when I got your message. I am super pumped for you to be joining becca at God's Littlest Angels. I will be reading your blog first thing in the morning, before and after every meal, and before I sleep everynight-so no pressure on keeping it updated :)

    Can't wait to follow you on your journey and I am in constant thought and prayer for you while you are serving Jesus and His sweet name in Haiti! You are such an encouraging sister and I pray that you are stretched and pushed more in your walk over the next 3 weeks than ever before. Much love Kim!

    I just finished painting my room and I canNOT wait until next year :)
