6 Weeks and Counting!

So I have a pretty good feeling that this is going to be a great week! The past weekend was eventful, but good. I went home for Mother's Day, however, a storm hit southern Missouri and caused widespread damage so my parents were without power (like most others!). so that always adds a bit of adventure. But the power came on not TOO long after and the weekend turned into a good one. I hope and pray that my mom had a good day! It is always excited when all the kids and grandkids are in the house.

This week is finals, but for me it is really just A FINAL. I am very lucky this semester and I only have one real final! So by 10:00 on Wednesday, I will be done with school. I picked up my cap and gown this afternoon so everything is ready to go!

On the missions front things are quickly approaching! I have a love offering on Sunday at my home church. I also have two more churches lined up to speak at. On June 6th there is a benefit yard sale/bake sale at Simmons Baptist Church in between Houston and Cabool. All the proceedings will go to my trip so that will be a busy day and week leading up to it! Also my family is planning a going away party (and birthday and graduation) on June 7th at Bado Community Church. It will be a day to celebrate with friends and family.

I will be leaving for Japan on June 22nd. My roommates and I are moving out of our apartment on May 24th so I will be living at several different places for several weeks! Before I leave for Japan, I am going to fly to California to visit one of my best friends that will be living there. So I will be leaving Missouri on June 16th, but not the country until June 22nd. So the next 6 weeks are going to BUSY, BUSY! Hope I get everything done! :)
