30 days.

Today is December 8th.

Exactly 30 days until I get on a plane and my life changes forever. 

It's a strange feeling, stepping into your dreams. 

It's this intense rollercoaster of every emotion in the book. 

Nervousness. Excitement. Sadness. Expectation. Fear. Joy. 

As hard as this year has been, 

there still seems to be this underlying bittersweet feeling to every situation. 

Given how much snow we've had recently, I am more than ready to play in the crystalline waters of Thailand. 

But every day I seem to want to just stare at the Rocky Mountains in the distance. 

I am cherishing cozy sweaters and even that horrible feeling of your nostril hairs freezing instantly. 

I am definitely ready to go, but I'm finding it harder than usual to say goodbye to some of the things and people I have grown to love this year. 

I even started packing today. 

Which is absolutely insane. 

I can't believe how fast this year has gone, despite how slow it may have felt at times. 

I told myself I wasn't allowed to really start getting things together until a month before. 

And now it's here. 

Crazy. 

God is so faithful. 

There were a lot of moments this year when I doubted He would come through for me. 

I wondered over and over if I had jumped into this without really thinking it through, 

but He reassured me over and over that I am on the right path, 

that He has indeed called me to this. 

And because He has called me to this, 

I know He will provide for it. 

As it stands right now, 

I have about $2,000 raised, which is a significant jump from the $-161 I had last month. 

But I am still in need of $5,000 in the next 23 days, 

and I would love for you to be a part of getting me there. 

In order to be fully funded for my first year of ministry by January 1st, 

I need to raise a minimum of $217 a day. 

That may seem unrealistic, but it's totally possible if everyone who reads this helps out. 

If 22 people gave $10 a day, I would be fully funded. 

Or if 50 people gave one time donations of $100, I would make my deadline. 

If you are looking for some way to give back this Christmas, 

I pray that you will consider giving the gift of hope to the women trapped in the sex industry in Phuket.

You can give by clicking here and clicking the donate button.

Or you can give by looking to the right hand side of this page and clicking the DONATE button. 

No donation is too small. 

Literally every single dollar counts. 

If you are unable to give but still want to be involved, 

please PLEASE pray that all the finances will come in by January 1st. 

A thousand thank you's would never be enough for those of you that have already sown into this. 

You and I are going to change the world.
