5 days...

Hey Guys! If I remember to faithfully write, I think this will be a great way to stay in contact and keep everyone updated on my trip to Japan. I will admit I am a bit nervous right now. I go through stages where I feel like I never want to leave home (my comfort) and then times when I am completely confident and enthusiastic about going on an adventure for the Lord. If you read this and think about praying for my group, I ask that you remember us this week May 28-30th as we have our Rehearsal Camp and then Wednesday as we have our Send Off concert. Working with 6 other musically inclined people is always a challenge as we all have different opinions and tastes about things, but my prayer is that God unifies us and gives us an open mind- and that we realize we are just instruments to be used by Him. That's what I really want. I can't wait to see what God has in store. I feel so privileged yet unworthy to be working for Him. I feel like I have so much to get done before Friday... well, I do! I still have yet to do my assignments for class and packing hasn't even entered my mind...

In all other news, this weekend was filled with 2 BEAUTIFUL weddings. My cousin Hillary is now married and I had a great time being in her wedding party and singing "Bless the Broken Road" by Rascal Flatts. She was seriously the most beautiful bride I have seen...
Then Brittany & Matt's wedding was a BLAST! It is amazing seeing 2 people together who I have known for 4 years and have seen their growth. They are genuinely amazing people. The wedding was HOT and it was so much fun getting to dance and have a good time with all my closest friends, who I consider my family.

It is just beginning to hit me how much I am going to miss Cottage 20. Never before have I met such an incredible group of girls who compliment each other so well yet are so unique. The bond and love we have for one another is so strong. I am going to miss seeing their faces every single morning!

Today my ISP Japan team had the opportunity to sing in 3 services in Rancho Cucamonga. I was very pleased. I can't wait to get even stronger!

That's all for now... time to prepare. I don't think I will ever be fully prepared.
