Hi!
It's been an interesting week, not being at the baby hospital and not really knowing what my role was. I've managed to stay busy and make some good connections too. I've been taking my antibiotic every day and I go back for a new throat culture on Monday morning at 7am. I am trusting in faith that the tests will come back negative. If they are completely clean I'll find out on Tuesday and should be able to go back to the baby hospital on Tuesday. That is what I am trusting will happen. So please pray towards this with me. Thanks!

Continuing from my Bad News Post
So I shared my disappointment on my updates site...this is really hard. Please pray for a complete healing and for direction for what I should now do with my week. I really have no idea...for a whole week and a half, but I want to maintain a positive attitude. Please pray, I'll keep you up to date.

Baby Hospital Begins Tomorrow
Hi Friends
I begin my time at the baby hospital tomorrow. I'm very very excited! I'm still having some mouth/tooth pain and I really don't want it to affect my opportunity to work with these amazing babies. I am believing in Jesus for a healing and it has gotten better, it really has, but the pain is still there and its been bothering me. Please continue to pray for a complete healing and that whatever this is would be completely cleared up so I can focus on what I've been sent here to do. I truely believe Jesus is working in me through this, that my faith is growing as a result of whatever this is and I trust that I will be healed. Thanks for praying with me.

Praising Jesus!
Hi!
I was able to sleep through the night last night!!! This was a huge relief to me. I slept about 11 hours and then even napped some today. I am on the mend, Jesus truly has shown up in power and I am SO thankful. Please continue to pray that the healing would continue. I'm trusting that it will but sometimes it is hard. I sense the need to focus on Jesus and not on whatever pain is there and through this Jesus is growing my faith and trust in Him. So far Jesus has been there and when I fix my eyes on Him the pain deminishes. I'm so amazed and thankful. Thank you for praying with me. I'll keep you up to date.

Prayer Points - June 14th
I share the following prayer points, not to concern anyone but really just to recieve prayer. I'm doing fine, loving it here in Romania! This country is just amazing, a lot of times I forget I'm in Romania. So here are some prayer points:
Health - Ever since getting to South Carolina for training I've had some headaches, I took some meds and thought nothing of it. Then I got to Romania and every night I've been awakened by extreme pain in my left ear/jaw/upper teeth. The first couple nights I was able to roll over and go back to sleep but then it got worse. The pain is normally only there when I'm laying down but today its been persistant all day. Advil doesn't even seem to be working, which is very scary to me. I self-diagnoised myself with an ear/sinus infection and I started an antibiotic I brought with me last night. I've also had to take some stronger pain medication I have with me to control the pain. I know it might seem crazy that I'm not going to the doctor but I have a good reason. I don't want whatever this is to affect my chances to work at the baby hospital. Just the fact that this came up now makes me think it is possibly a spiritual attack too. Please pray that God would show up in power and heal me.
Sleep - Due to this pain, I have not slept well in a few nights and I'm getting tired. Please pray that I will be able to rest well and not wake up due to pain. Please pray that I'll be able to sleep through the night.
Those are my biggest needs right now. Thanks for your prayers.

Medical Tests
Hi!
One Monday morning at 7am I will go to get my medical tests in order to be able to work at the Baby Hospital. These tests are pretty important so I would really appreciate your prayers that everything would go smoothly. I'm not really a fan of doctors but ever since I found out I'd have to do this I've had peace that it will be ok. I know it will but I don't want to find out there is something preventing me from doing what I'm supposed to do. Thanks for your prayers!

Reality is setting in
Hello,
Reality has set in, I leave for the airport in 11 hours. I have some prayer needs below...
Reality has set in, I leave for the airport in 11 hours. I have some prayer needs below...
- sleep - again, this is pretty important right now. I need a good nights sleep tonight as I havn't slept well for a couple weeks and I leave tomorrow morning, please pray that I will be supernaturally restored
- team - I will meet the majority of the team I'll be with for the summer tomorrow afternoon. Please pray for unity and understanding as we begin to get to know one another
- spiritual realm - this last five weeks preparing for this adventure have been amazing, Jesus has met me right where I needed him to and has prepared the way for me to go on this trip. I'm thrilled and I want to be sure to stay in the intimate amazing relationship I am now experiencing with Jesus
- change, new things - wow, I'm leaving for the WHOLE summer, its hitting me, new people, not having all of my "comforts", not having people who know me well, not that this is bad all of these things come with this experience but its all hitting me and I got a really bad headache tonight and I think that might have been part of the reason. Please pray for peace.
Thats all for now, I'm off to finish things up and get some sleep. Thank you for your prayers!

35.5 Hours
35.5 Hours to go...I'm so tired, so much to do, you'd think I'd have everything done by now but no...things keep coming up. Please pray for supernatural sleep when I do actually get to sleep. Tomorrow from 3pm on is pretty full so I've got to get everything done tonight and tomorrow morning. It's all hitting me, I'm super excited but my emotions are just all over the place, this is a big change but it is going to be so amazing. Thanks for your prayers.
