When your God is the King of Heaven, and Spontaneity Is Your Friend

... you will go where He sends you on a moment's notice.  We are off to Canada for a week to help Impact World Tours in Kingston, Ontario.  Andrew got a phone call from John Ross yesterday, asking for him to run audio for the Tour there.  It has all worked out; both the $ and the time off of work-- well, I say, "worked out", but I know that it has all been God's hand at work.  I have to admit, I was a little worried at first that Andrew would be going by himself, and we would be apart for our 3rd Anniversary.  But I could hear God clearly in my spirit, telling me to not worry about it and to leave it alone.  It is amazing to me that the finances have been completely covered, in one day!  And a friend is coming over tomorrow before we leave with a cooler full of food for the trip!
   This is going to be my first missions trip!  I can't tell you how excited I am, because my whole life I've longed to go on one and here it is!  At last! 
   Andrew is saying its going to be a lot of work.  Of course, I try to imagine what that is going to look like, exactly.... but I can't really, except thinking that it'll mean not seeing a whole lot of him for a few days.  But I'm so excited thinking about the difference it'll end up making in the Kingdom, so it'll be okay.  It'll be more than just okay, actually!
   I'm already charging my camera battery : )  We are leaving tomorrow evening, and returning the following Tuesday (the 8th).  We are taking the children, of course, renting a car, and driving 27 hours, nonstop.  It is a good thing for Andrew that I LOVE to drive! : )   
   Please pray for the Lord to do amazing things in the hearts of the people there!

How exciting! God gave you easy kids for a reason! It sounds exhausting, but wonderful. I'm so glad Andrew has the opportunity to work with IWT again. Papa and I will be praying for all of you and for many people to be impacted for His kingdom.
What a memorable way to spend your anniversary!
