Update on Support and Everything Else

First off. God has just blown me away with how He provides! I have received such encouragement from everyone, it has totally sustained me emotionally. Also, students at NMSU, friends, family members of my friends, patients at work, and strangers...God has used all types of people to bless me with prayers and financial support. I am so so so THANKFUL!

Another HUGE answer to prayer: my application for a student visa was granted, so that obstacle has been conquered.

In case you were wondering, this is what my support has gone to so far.
Since first announcing my trip I have raised exactly $3300.
That allowed me to pay for my deposit and health insurance ($646), it also allowed me to pay for my student visa which was $100 more than what I was originally told ($502.26). My next payment is for my flights to and from Australia with is approximately $1500-2000. How perfect is God in providing I need?

What do I still need support for?
appx. $1500 for round trip flight to and from Thailand/Cambodia
$3400 for time in Australia (room, board, food, transportation for 4 months)
$2000 for time in Thailand/Cambodia (room, board, food, transportation for 1 month)

I know as each hurdle comes, God will provide right on time... So thank you to everyone who is joining my support team and supporting me in this. I am so excited to be used by God in every way possible. Thank You!
