I had my first screening tonight! I have to admit I was a little bit nervous about doing it. I kind of had this fear that no one was going to show up, but I was so wrong! It was so great to see everyone who came, and I was so excited to share with all of them what I will be doing in the next couple of months. I loved answering their questions, and listening to everyone! It was also nice to catch up before I leave on August 4th!
Here is a little fundraising update...as of tonight I have raised a total of $1,000!!! I can't believe it! We are almost there guys! AND Jonathan Paul Miller invited me to come speak at his college group, which will be amazing. $5.00 can go a long way when a lot of people donate, so who knows? And if I don't raise any money that is great too, because at least I will have had the opportunity to share the word about Invisible Children to another group of people! Keep praying that I raise the rest of the $2,000!
Here are some things that have really been on my heart in prayer
1. Please pray for Joseph Kony and his soldiers (both the adults and children). God has been reminding me that he loves them too, and they need our prayers. I have specifically been praying that God would speak to them and change their hearts. We serve a big God, so don't second guess what he can do!
2. Pray for the children of Uganda, that they get to experience God's love in a powerful way!
3. Pray for my team and I. We leave in less than two weeks, and have a lot of work ahead of us. We need endurance, grace and lots of love!!!
-Christa
