My Realization & Updates

Two weekends ago, on February 5-7th, I went on a retreat with Cru at Cooperstown Bible Camp. It was a lot of fun and I had a fun time getting to know my fellow Cru members. That weekend was a really big weekend because that is the weekend that I realized that I have not given myself to God. I have been a Christian my whole life and have known God for as long as I can remember. But the thing that I realized that weekend was that I have not surrendered to the lord and that I do not know him as well as I probably should. I have started to work on my relationship with the Lord and figure what I know about the Lord. One of my good friends on campus has started to disciple me and I am excited to see where it goes.

Another thing is I am overwhelmed and overjoyed all at the same time at how many people have already supported me and donated money towards my mission. I have been fundraising for almost 2 months and have raised almost 40% of my goal. I have to have 50% raised by March 29th, 2021 which is $2,275 and I have raised $1,795. I appreciate everyone that has donated so far and am surprised by how well I am doing this far.

On another note, I am selling t-shirts in partnership with Fund the Nations. I have designed a t-shirt with them and are getting pre-orders for the t-shirts so if you would like one they are $20 or $25 if they have to be shipped. The picture below is what the t-shirts look like. 

I have a little over 4 months till I leave. That is crazy exciting and nerve-racking all at the same time.
