Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you!
I can't believe how quickly the past 5 months that I have been back has flown by. It has been so great however, and I do love the area and my "family" here in Boulder! And now, its time to start my blog again.
Ileave today.....to the airport in in 3 1/2 hours, for So. America with no sure return date. God was so clear about me doing this that I just know He will direct my next steps after the school. I'm still up..."putsing", instead of going to bed. .....I think its because I won't be coming back to this home ever again....there is a true finality to leaving. Anyway, I just painted my toenails as I will heading to summer climate. Some of you may be jealous about that..... I leave Denver at 8:50 a.m. and then connect with my international flight in Los Angeles at noon. I fly all night and arrive in Santiago at 6:15 the next day, after a stop in Lima Peru...I ask people to pinch me at times to make sure this is all really happening.
I am praying there are no delays just getting to L.A. as I don't have much time to get to where I need to go.
I Am so excited for this journey .....God impressed on me so strongly to return and do this, so....here I go! He is so faithful, so its easy to go. There are so many in need in every part of the world. How privaleged I am to be doing this.
This is my first time to Chile, and I am so blessed to get to start off my time in South America with my dear friend Yanet, a missionary I lived with for 3 months on the YWAM base in Uruguay last Spring. She is visiting her family and invited me. I will get to see some of Santiago before heading South to Pichilemu, where the YWAM base where I will for the 1st 3 months of school.
Thank sooo many of you who have encouraged me through words, prayers and financial support. Its quite humbling to have to raise support, but thats the mission life, and I know He will provide. Its been great seeing so many of you or at least visiting on the phone.
I begin the Discipleship Training school on Jan. 6th and will graduate from the school on the 10th of June. I'll do my best to bring you along with me when I can through this blog. Please keep me in your prayers.
ADIOS mis amigos!!!!
Goodbye United States until???????
Love,
Holly
