We (Macon, Dale and I) should get to the Philippines tomorrow night after 22 hours in the air + layovers. Whew!<\/p>\n<p>As the solid white clouds float by underneath me, I&#8217;m glad for the verse, &#8220;The earth is the Lord&#8217;s and the fullness of it.&#8221; We&#8217;ll never be anywhere that God is not with us.<\/p>\n<p>Our first adventure will be based out of the national training center to visit various tribal locations for an NTM@work photo shoot. Keep your eye out for the 2013 calendar in November! We&#8217;re also hoping to video someone&#8217;s story at the training center. Pray that we will connect with just the right people as the students are not in session right now.<\/p>\n<p>The last half of the trip, we&#8217;ll be flying to another island to visit the Tala Andig people group for more videos and photo\u2026with our 12 bags of luggage and some rough jeep riding!<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll be searching for the story when we get to each place, as we were not able to communicate with folks beforehand. Pray those details will come together and we&#8217;ll be able to create stories that will impact the 2500 unreached people groups. Wow\u20262500 still takes my breath away. We need more laborers, don&#8217;t we? And how can they go unless they are sent? =)<\/p>\n<p>Thank-you for helping to send me off with your prayers and support. It&#8217;s so encouraging all the folks that have said they will be praying for me. I feel like God has gone before me in the small details of preparing to leave\u2026getting some wick-away shirts, malaria meds, a baby-sitter for my garden etc. And now I&#8217;ll get to see what else God has in store in some out-of-the-way places.<\/p>\n<p>I hardly know what to expect, but I am encouraged by Yahweh Oz &#8211; The LORD My Strength. I&#8217;ve been prepping to lead a summer high school girls study on Knowing God by Name that starts\u2026the week I get back. I am encouraged already to trust more deeply in God. He is my strength all day long. Pray that I will rely on the LORD My Strength through this journey\u2026 and that I&#8217;ll be able to finish prepping lessons over the Atlantic!<\/p>\n<p>Can&#8217;t wait to tell you about what&#8217;s going to happen. I pray that you and I will be encouraged by Jesus words, &#8220;Come to Me, all you who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>PRAYER requests:<br \/>\n1. Daily trusting God for strength<br \/>\n2. Impactful stories (finding willing people, prepping the story, shooting interviews, on-location footage, editing, details to come together, etc.)<br \/>\n3. Safety (Lots of in-country travel)<br \/>\n4. To be a blessing to the missionaries and nationals we visit.<\/p>\n<p>P.S.

Looks like I won&#8217;t be able to see my cousin on this trip, but God still answered my prayer through a video my cousin posted online. I got to &#8220;see&#8221; him and hear all about his walk of faith, family and business!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Up at 5am this morning\u2026headed to the other side of the world!
