20 days... So Crazy!

Quick update on God's superawesome-ness (Not that you really need my help to believe it...)!

Flight - Went through this morning!
Visa - just need to get them a copy of my ticket, and they can process it
School - Exams are done, and I am moved out of residence
Funds - I've got $3800, which is almost two thirds of my goal! God is sooo good!
Money - The student loan people decided that I'm no longer in school and need to start paying my loan back, which is a bit sooner than I bargained for, but my sister is SO much help in all of this and knows exactly what needs to be done! (Which is good, because I don't!)
Forms - there are lots to fill out, but I'm at the library and on the way to getting those filled out!
Health Insurance - Just sent the form to the Wycliffe office


As for spending time between now and leaving for Cameroon, I'm in Ontario with my sister, extended family, and Ben - A great time to relax and get stuff done before I head off in 20 days!!! It's great spending time with cousins, and Aunts and Uncles, and purusing the Christian bookstore with my sister. God is good.

Christmas - this year is more real for me than ever, but strangely absent of nearly all traditional holiday feelings. Instead, I'm filled with the wonder and awe that we are celebrating the coming of the gift that made salvation possible. And without God and the gift of salvation, we have nothing to boast in, nothing to live for - So celebrating the life giving gift... Its kind of incredible!

Merry Christmas all!
Andrea
