The combination of turning 29
last week, getting ready to say goodbye to 2010 and to a ministry that I've
been with for four years is doing a number on me. I've been evaluating not only
the last year but the last four years (well, the last 10 years).

I've been asked if I have any
regrets from the last few years? Nope. Sure there are small things that I would
have changed, but they were all things about me (my attitude, reactions, etc to
situations). I wouldn't change my time with YWAM or with AIM they were both
wonderful.

As I'm looking back it forces me
to look ahead. I have to not only decide what I want 2011 to look like, but
what do I want my life to look like? What do I want to accomplish before I turn 30?

I don't have all the answers yet.
I'm not sure I ever will.

At the moment my hope is to spend
some time in Thailand in 2011 (and possibly Africa as well). I don't have exact
details of when or how long yet. The idea is that I want to visit some
missionaries and see the ministries that they have started. My hope is that
I'll have a bit more of an idea of where I want to be and what I want to do. I
would Love it if I can find a place where all of my gifts can be used and I can
be doing something that I'm passionate about. 

Just like every other trip I've
taken I'm going to need your help in order to go overseas again.

First I need prayer - that the
right doors would open and the doors that aren't for me to go through right now
would close, wisdom in making decisions, my roommate and I need someone to move
into our apartment next month (we only budgeted to pay a quarter of rent and
utilities, we can't afford to pay half each any longer).

I am also going to need financial
support. Without having all the details figured out yet I
don't know exactly how much I'll need. AIM is allowing me to continue to raise
support through them until I have things figured out long-term. The last few
years I've been able to save up some money that I'll be able to live off of for
a while, I'd rather not have to dip into it to cover the cost of going back on
the field. Will you consider giving me a Birthday or Christmas gift in the form
of a donation to my support account?

I'll be heading to Seattle to
spend Christmas with my mom and step-dad. Then I'll come back to Georgia to
make sure the girl who's taking my position at AIM is good to go. I plan on
continuing to live in Georgia as I have such a great community here.

As I continue to figure out the
details of what's next I'll make sure to keep you all in the loop.
