So Thankful!

The Ghana Journals

Part 7//So Thankful!

Last time I updated you all, our visa applications were on their way to be processed by the Embassy of Ghana, and I asked you to pray along with us that our visas would be processed efficiently, approved, and returned quickly.  It is with great joy that I'd like to tell you that God answered those prayers even beyond what we asked for.  We got our passports with approved and ready-to-go visas on Monday morning!  That means it was only ten days total between when we shipped our applications to when we received our visas, and that was over two weekends. (This was almost twice as fast as I expected, even if all went perfectly.)  What a great and faithful God we serve!!  Thank you so much for praying in faith with us.  To God be the glory!

So we're officially, really, truly going to Ghana in just under five weeks.  It still feels a bit surreal, but we're very excited!!  Soon I will be posting an update including a few ways you can share in this adventure with us.  For now, you can read any of The Ghana Journals that you've missed by clicking on the tag at the bottom of this post or on the sidebar of the blog, listen to some Chelsea Moon or Shane & Shane music, drink some hot tea, and bask in the incredible faithfulness of our God.  :)

Until next time,

P.S. All the posts on this blog recently have been about my upcoming trip to Ghana, but in the next few days I'm going to be sharing a post about some other exciting news.  You're not going to want to miss it.  :)
