Yesterday I received the required shots for my trip. They included Typhoid, Yellow Fever, and the newest Tetanus vaccine. Thank you to all who prayed for me! Your prayers helped a lot. :) I was a little nervous on my way, but everything turned out fine. Except for my arms being sore today and not being able to sleep on my side last night, I have nothing to complain about. ;) When I think about the fact that my body was injected with all three of those dangerous diseases at the same time, and that it was able to learn how to fight and conquer them without my conscious effort, I am blown away. The ingenuity of our Creator God is beyond incredible. If my body can do that, and I'm just clay in the Potter's hands, how awesome and powerful He truly must be. :)
I love this song. It's perfect for my mood!

Jehovah Jireh is His Name
Wow, it's been a while since I posted something on here. Sorry about that! Preparing for Ecuador has been going great this past month. Not too much going on, but just the little things like filling out waivers and forms and scheduling an appointment to get shots. (I have to get a few, including Typhoid and Yellow Fever. Yuck.) My appointment is on Thursday the 26th at 2:00 if you'd like to pray for me! :)
...And now for the news everyone's been waiting for!! ;)...
After adding together the amount of money International Teams has received from generous supporters, the amount I sent in of my own money, and the amount I know is currently on the way from Crestview and a few other families, I figured out a few hours ago that I have THE EXACT AMOUNT of money I needed!!!! That's a total of $7,500!!! Can you even believe it??? Indeed our God is Jehovah Jireh, the One who Sees. :) Thank you to each and every one of you who prayed that my financial needs would be met and gave of your own money selflessly! It is such an incredible blessing and honor to have you all partnering with me and helping me get to Ecuador. I praise God for giving me friends and family like you. I could go on and on about how much you all mean to me. Once again our wonderful Shepherd has proved Himself faithful. He will never lead without first providing a way.
Though I know I will officially have the total amount of $7,500 for International Teams soon, I will still have a few more personal expenses that need to be taken care of, including my shots, malaria pills, and a few books for certain classes.
If you did not get a chance to partner with me financially, (and are totally bummed because you wanted too) ;) you are more than welcome to still help me! I would love that. :)
Once again, thank you to all. You have truly represented Jesus to me, and you will be helping me to represent Jesus to many people in the country of Ecuador in the coming months. I cannot wait for the crazy journey that lies ahead, and I cannot wait to take you along with me, in heart and in spirit. May our Lord, Jehovah Jireh, bless you abundantly tonight and in the days ahead.
With overwhelming gratitude,
Jenni
