Suddenly...

Suddenly things changed...My original plans were to got to Iasi today and cross into Moldova but I am very sad to say that I will be leaving the orphanage today and back to the States on Monday. Brother Ilie, Founder of Walk in the Light Ministries, spoke with me on thursday and it seems they will not need any volunteers for the school year. So instead of going to Iasi I have prayed and decided to come back to the States and pray about where God will have me go next.

However, now I am dealing with saying goodbye here! It is honestly the hardest thing I have ever done in my life to date. I will miss these children so much but trust that God's ways are higher than mine. I came here in 4 days notice and I leave just as fast.

Please pray for my travel mercies and I will update you further on the details the beautiful and lovely departure from the orphanage. I have amazing photos of our last days together and stories that will move you. Even though I will not be here physically our hearts will be here...Together we have changed these kids lives.

I am sorry it is abrupt for you but it is abrupt for us here as well...We walked on this journey together from the beginning and we will walk through it to the end. We need your prayers and we pray for each and everyone of you who has touched our lives...More later today or when I hit the states on monday.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful journey with me.
