Friends and family, in that moment I realized I am exactly where God wants me. I am so blessed to be supported in this years journey. not only have you helped me reach my entire financial goal, but I have one person a day devoted to prayer as well. These people have committed to pray for the team, our community, and the work that the Lord is already doing. HE is so faithful.
Training, which started this past Monday, has been extremely beneficial. I learned that we can only effectively impact this community through Christ's Agape love. I see that through accepting this call I am required to always seek Christ first and look beyond the ordinary. Seeking how I am called to go the extra mile in all that I do is a big part of that. I am so excited to see and learn more through the next week and half.
As many of you know I have been temporary home, but just got to meet me my new host mom yesterday. They have graciously given me basically my own apartment in their garage. This allows me to invite students over and develop more mentoring opportunities. What a blessing!
My new address is:
304 Crown Court
Converse, TX 78109
c/o The Cofields.
Our school has recently been switched to Judson High School instead of Samuel Clemens. No PAIS team has ever been apart of this school, so this will be quite the journey. In saying that I am so passionate that our Lord will amaze us with HIS work in these learners lives.
Prayer has been a huge motivation. The following people have graciously volunteered to pray for our team.
Monday: Stacey Williams
Tuesday: Charlotte
Wednesday: Mom Wonser
Thursday: Tammy Huckaby
Friday: Kim and Jim Sorenson
Saturday: Brittany B.
Sunday: Jessica B.
If you feel strongly to pray as well, PLEASE do so. Our team is still in awe of the support my community has offered.
May the Lord, our Rock and Redeemer, be glorified in all our efforts both in California and Texas. Ye Haw!
Jess.
