Joshua Project
As you can see, on the sidebar I have an unreached people group highlighted thanks to the Joshua Project. For D-NOW at my church I was in charge of this missions display and I had three boards and a PowerPoint playing. I spent a lot of time researching organizations and other missions sites to put together a slightly comprehensive explanation of missions. So, when i came across the Joshua Project site, I was amazed that so much information was available about all of these people groups. I am so excited with what God is doing at my church with missions. All of the Sunday school classes have adopted people groups to commit to praying for. We have so many trip and things going on. At the banquet, a five-fold presentation was made. it was really good. I had the opportunity in speaking at the banquet and i was unsure if what i wrote would be beneficial. I had no idea what the lady after me was going to speak on and what I said linked with exactly with what she said. that just goes to show you that God was in complete control of the evening no matter how much planning each of us had put into it. We are also looking into supporting missionaries. I would assume we are since that was one of the points made that we should support our local missionaries. Yet, that could mean that we just give to the cooperative program. Oh well, maybe when I am ready to run of into the foreign mission field, the church will help support me. Anyway, I am also pleased with the concept of the missions journals. These journals are helping the students make a commitment to pray, memorize scripture and do their quiet times.
Update
Okay, it has been a long time, I know. Here is an update. I am going to Toccoa Falls College. I have currently been working at Walgreens Pharmacy to hopefully get a job as a pharmacy technician. I also spend a ton of time at HAFBC planning missions things, like the Puerto Rico mission trip. I am excited about this summer and all of the missions opportunities I will have. It will be nice. Unfortunately i have joined the other 99.9% of the senior population and counting the days. I have 13 more days of school till spring break.

Runaway Thoughts
This summer the church is going on a mission trip to Puerto Rico. I am excited, but there have not been any meetings to sign up. When the church went to Scotland, there were signups and meeting once a month to prepare for the trip. If we do not meet soon, plane tickets will be so high. We need to start fundaraising now for the trip. I really hope that we can get things rolling fast before the time runs away.
