Dear Friends,
Thank you so much for your prayers and support as I begin my journey as a missionary. Even though I have been around missionaries for much of my life, I never realized how much work went into the details of getting to the field. I have been slightly overwhelmed with all the preparations. My admiration for those called to the field has definitely grown in light of all that I am learning!
That being said, I am excited the see the progress I have made so far. My prayer cards just came in and I am thrilled about how they turned out! I was a little worried about them since I have no graphic design training. However, thanks to the input of family and friends, it worked.
I also bought my plane tickets this week. God really answered prayers there. A typical ticket to Honduras costs around $800. But God worked a miracle and I bought mine for $69. Praise the Lord! I will be leaving for Honduras on August 11, 2015.
My biggest prayer request at the moment is for my support. I currently have 63% of my support. With August just around the corner, I am anxious to reach my goal before time runs out. But I have seen proof that where God guides, He provides. I know that I can trust Him to open the doors for the rest of my support.
Please continue to remember me in your prayers and in your giving. I can’t wait to get to Honduras!
Sincerely,
Ericka Wright
