And So The Journey {Almost} Begins!

Hi Friends and Family!

My journey to North Myrtle Beach, SC begins in less than 2 days and needless to say I am beyond excited for what is in store for these next 10 weeks!  Through all of your generous support financially and through prayer, you have helped me in countless ways as I prepare to leave Wisconsin to serve others and to expand the kingdom!  Each one of you has contributed to reaching out to others and to provided an opportunity to be able to share the gospel and witness changed lives!

Before the journey officially begins, I just wanted to give some information about what I'll be doing down there along with some prayer requests and praises that I want to share!  The summer project begins on May 22nd, where around 80 others students including myself will all meet eachother in North Myrtle Beach!  God has called all of us to serve for him and the kindgom this summer in NMB.  Being surrounded by brothers and sisters in Christ who all share the same passion that I have will be simply incredible.  While down there, we will participate in weekly meetings and evangilizing, along with working a full time job at a local business!

Please pray for safe travels for everyone who will be traveling these next few days, as some will be driving and others will be flying.   Please also pray for all of us as we begin a new adventure living life together this summer for 10 weeks serving others and growing in our faith!  As I prepare to leave until August, I know that I am going to deeply miss my friends and family here at home. I ask that you would pray that God would give me focus and confidence that I am going to make an impact this summer on the lives of people who the other students and I will encounter.  We have been given an opportunity to plant seeds into the lives of people who are in need of hearing truths and knowing how much they are loved!  I am confident that God will provide us with many divine appointments to share the gospel while we are in NMB but please consider praying for the students and staff that we may take a leap of faith to share with people and that we can be bold and confident that we have been equipped to share with the people we meet.

As I said earlier, I am grateful that many of you have decided to partner with me for this summer.  I am praising God that I was able to see him provide funds for this summer and that many of you were willing to support me financially.  I am blessed to have been given this opportunity to take a leap of faith and really rely on God to lead me on the path he has laid out before me.

Throughout the summer I will update this blog on a weekly basis!  Please continue to look for updates because I will be eager to share with each and every one of you what is happening in NMB!  If you are interested in receiving weekly email updates, send me an email at jennabill10@gmail.com so that I can add you to the list!

My next blog update will come to you from NMB during the first week, next week!  There will be much more to come in the future.

Love,
Jenna
