90 day countdown!

90 days countdown to Swaziland has begun! I am sitting here tonight after seeing an heartbreaking and moving documentary call "STUCK" highlighting the need for reform concerning international adoption and the global orphan crisis. My heart is in millions of pieces for every orphan especially those stuck with families caught in 1,2,3,4, and yes 5 years plus of waiting and 10's of thousands of dollars later to bring their babies home. Seriously do mankind a favor and check out this site. The best kind of heartbreak is the one that cries for those who have no voice. www.stuckdocumentary.com

Swaziland is a country with thousands of kids and very little adults. Adults die off in their early 30's due to HIV and Aids early leaving the kids behind with a giant generational gap taken by disease. Many times we picture missions as heading to "fix stuff" "fix people" "solve problems".....I am experiencing more and more that there is HUGE need and importance in being fully present with the hurting and poor without gathering the fix it plan. So I am really going to try to "be" and not "do" this trip and every step leading up to it. Hard when naturally I want to do and fix!

I also wanted to give you all an update on where I am at on fundraising for my trip. I am currently needing approx 2,200 dollars left to meet my goal. If you have already given THANK you so much!
