Update on donation info: the nitty gritty of dollars and cents

Good afternoon Everyone!

 Thank you so much to all of you who came on Saturday to hear and see a wee bit of Papua New Guinea! I was so honored to share my story with you and show you the videos. I had so much fun, and it gets me excited and refuels my passion for what I'm going to be doing when I go back. :)

Thank you to those who have been praying for me and asking how I'm doing: I'm happy and grateful to report that I have a job!!!!! It's been such a blessing to be at Riverview Care Center in Spokane, working on-call. Not only do I get paid (yay!!!! saving money for Australia and Papua New Guinea) but I get to brush up on my nursing skills and be a blessing to the residents there!!!

Lack of education leaves many people believing
 "magic" is the cause of  sickness and disease. This poster
explains "TB is not caused by sorcery, but by contagious germs."

Even though I'm working, I am still raising support to go (as a full time volunteer) to Australia and Papua New Guinea for two and a half years. Many of you have been asking me how to do that and I wanted to give you an update on the latest info I have.

 All of you who are reading this are a vital part of this great adventure. Finances are a part of me returning to Australia and Papua New Guinea but so is prayer and words of encouragement; You may not realize it but even the smallest things such as following my blog is so uplifting to me. So I thank you for any way that you are able to journey with me.

You are not only supporting me, but you are helping to change a nation by bringing much needed health care and hope to those in desperate need.
