"Two are better than one, 

because they have a good return for their labor:

If either of them falls down,

one can help the other up. 

But pity anyone who falls 

and has no one to help them up.

Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm.

But how can one keep warm alone?

Though one may be overpowered, 

two can defend themselves.

A cord of three strands is not quickly broken."

Ecclesiastes 4:9-12

I am loving the adventure of support raising! More than raising support, I am raising friends; deepening friendships, re-connecting with friends from yesterday, and bathing every person and meeting in prayer. Thank you for all of your love and support! I cannot do this alone! Everyone I have talked to and met with has been so encouraging!! 

I am also very thankful for coffee shops! They are a great place to meet and camp out with lots of green tea! Not a coffee drinker, but love my tea. 

I am getting ready to head back into Minnesota on Friday! If you live close to Osakis or Fergus Falls, I would love to meet up with you! I am contacting many friends, relatives, and anyone I can think of. I am finding my tenacious side and will continue to contact people and set up appointments to share my ministry vision and financial goals. I love connecting with you and hearing about your families, struggles, and praises! I also love sharing about my mission and answering questions you may have. 

Here is a little what my day looks like as I am traveling around and meeting up with people:

I start off the morning with some support raising devotionals and praying for those I am going to call and meet up with that day. I head to my first appointment and set up. Between appointments, I am emailing, calling, updating my blog, eating, prepping materials, reading for my ACSI (Association for Christian Schools International) certification, and other little tasky things. I try to get in a run or ride (when I get to Colorado!!!) at the end of the day. I finish with more time in the Word and prayer for my supporters, students, friends, family, and whatever is on my heart. Finally, I drop off fast before starting over the next morning! Not every day looks exactly like this format, but pretty close depending on scheduled appointments. 

Thank you again for all of your encouragement and support! If I have not connected with you yet, I hope to soon!
