January 24, 2007

This is Alissa and if you are reading this hopefully you know a bit about me and the exciting journey to come. I am planning on leaving for the missions field at the end of March through YWAM. I will be stationed in Samoa for Discipleship Training then off to travel with the group (who knows- Hong Kong, New Zealand....). Currently I am raising finances and have sent out the last of my support letters. Slowly trickling in and as of right now I have about 100 dollars of my goal of 6000 (2000 I have already contributed from my own funds).
I cannot express what a spiritual battleground your spirit becomes when the choice has been made to serve full time for Christ.
Ephesians 6:12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Prayer requests:
Finances
Spiritual discernment and strength
Wisdom in when/how to tell my workplace of my upcoming leave
More later! ~ liss
BY THE WAY---- GO BEARS

Hi Alissa. It will be fun to see what's happening on your road to the mission field. I enjoyed the three pictures. Will be praying for you.
