Emails & Phone Calls & Paperwork Galore...OH MY!!!

This Summer, I've Received Over 200 Emails About This Upcoming Trip!!!
You probably think I'm exaggerating ~ but, NO, it's TRUE! 

Just this Summer, I have received more than 200 emails from my contacts at the mission organization & at Oaxaca Christian School!  I took the time to reply to most...
*  I am SO grateful to have a working laptop & wireless internet access, to be able to receive & respond to those emails!

I also have made & received dozens of phone calls to my contacts at these places...
*  I am SO grateful to have a working & dependable cell phone, to be able to get those important phone calls, no matter where I am!

And, WITH the emails came dozens of attached forms that I needed to carefully read, fill out, & return...
*  I am SO grateful that I was able to use my family's printers & fax machines to help with this!

I had no idea that being a short-term, volunteer missionary could be so complicated!!! 

*  If it was up to ME, I'd just buy the ticket & hop on the plane...BUT ~ I certainly don't know what's best! 

*  I trust the people in the organizations that I'm working with & know that they have my best interest in mind.  

*  I believe that even in midst of the tedious paperwork, God has been leading me & guiding me & preparing me for this coming school year!

The "Emails, Phone Calls, & Paperwork Galore" WILL continue throughout my entire trip ~ demanding me to spend hours a week on the computer. 

So, PLEASE PRAY for me to manage my time well, for clarity of thought, for my laptop to continue working well, & for clear communication!
