In the past few weeks many people have contacted me about
what my immediate plans are for after this year. I have about a month and a
half left here in the Dominican and my heart honestly hurts to think about
leaving. I have grown so much here and have come to love the people and program
so much that leaving, I know, will be very difficult.
To this point I had
been unable to answer the questions of the people asking because I have really
had no idea either. But this feeling that I had started the beginning of a Wild
and Crazy Adventure was unshakable. I have learned that with God my life will
be an adventure, but to the degree at which he has taken my obedience to His
adventure has been amazing.
Alright, now I have
an answer to all of you who would like to know what my immediate future holds.
In June I will be leading an Ambassador team into the Amazon Jungle, Peru. One of
four leaders we will be backpacking, barging and canoeing through the Amazon
seeking the untouched Jungle tribes. If you would like to look at the mission
and all its details you can link to the page by going to:

I am so excited for
all that has been happening and the doors swinging open and shut
in my life.
Please continue to pray for a discerning heart and wisdom as I move towards a
leadership role in missions.
All of my love!
Emily
Wow! Sounds incredible. Exciting and scary!
God sure does have amazing plans for you. Just keep stepping forward in obedience. You rock my world girl. Your obedience to Christ thus far has been a challenge to me to do the same. I love you girl.

Your so lucky. i only wish i could do something like this.
Take your bug spray!!!
I am so excited for you!!!
I love you!!!
Wow, that is awesome! How long is the mission?
See what PERSERVERANCE produces. You have sustained the course, you didn’t give up when all the other racers were! And you stand in the eyes of others as a person of character…who can LEAD others in missions. HOW HUGE IS THAT REVELATION!!! Are you seeing God’s hand in every step of this journey; He has tailored this experience to prepare you, mature you, challenge you, etc. I am thrilled that the adventure will continue this summer. How long will you be gone? MORE ESPANOL!!!!
