The Beginning

Well... I am not a writer and don't really have too many witty things to say so bear with me if you are reading along on this blogging adventure. Since I am going to be a missionary I thought I should start cataloging my adventures. The Journal idea was right out since my words run much to fast for my hand to keep up, so typing is much better. If you have talked to me at all in the last few months your bound to know that I am going to Scotland! Which might be the most Amazing thing that I have ever had the chance to do!!

Right now I am sitting in my Grandpas office at North Boulevard Church in Murfreesboro Tn. Of course I leave everything to the last minute. Typing as fast as I can to get all of my lessons done and all the pictures printed off for the children's service I am planing. I make it sound stressful but this is what i love!! We leave tomorrow we need to arrive at the airport at 11:55am. So far all I have forgotten at home is the wonderful periwinkle blue wind up flashlight my mom bought for my trip.... depression! It will just have to live on without me in Mn:)

Other then that, my send off was great! I already miss my parents and I haven't even left yet (which I completely anticipated). Daniel was asleep when I left for Tn at 5 Sunday morning so I just hugged him and Johnny is here with me until I leave. Tegan, my little sweetheart who I nanny, was very concerned when her parents were telling me to be careful so as I walked out the door she called "Jessie don't get any big scrapes" It totally made my day that she would care:)

God is going to do amazing things with the lives of the people we are going to meet! I am praying the Holy Spirit is already cultivating the hearts of the Scots for our team to go and plant seeds! The Battle belongs to the Lord and we are preparing with the armor of God!!

If you are reading this I hope you will enjoy!!
Have a Wonderful rest of the day!!

God's Blessings-
Jessie:)
