I'm going back to Poland!!!

I am going back to Poland in 2013! I am so excited. Words can't even express my excitement right now. I have been writing in my journal often and thought that I should start an online blog to keep everyone up to date on what's going on.

I am co-leading the CCU2theWorld trip to Poland this year with Katie Thomas and I am so excited to be working with her. We already have several people interested in going and I can't wait to see who my team is going to be.

I am really excited to be doing this. I'll definitely be needing lots of prayer during this whole thing. I know that stress is going to come along with this as well as other feelings of inadequacy and worry, and I don't like feeling that way.

The title of this blog is "till the whole world hears". Kelly Nichols, who does all the CCU2theWorld stuff, sent this to us in emails and says it in meetings and it really inspires me. I used to think missions trips were just to Africa or other countries that very obviously need the gospel, but in reality, everyone does. Dark eastern European countries do. America does. I do.

Matthew 28:16-20
Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. Then Jesus came to them and said "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
