Backpacking Australia!!
Donation protected
So most of you know me as the spontanious and adventurous wild child. Well, I'm at it again.
This past year I have been in an internship in Colorado that has helped me with a few things that have resulted in deeper intimacy with God; including developing prayer habits, finding freedom in worship, and the not-always-fun accountability that actually strengthened and grew me in ways I wasn't expecting. *tip my hat*
There's always too much I can say about the ride I've had with my relationship with God in this past year alone. One of the biggest things He's placed on my heart is my desire to explore. Whether it be the depths of His heart, the beautiful mountains of Colorado, or crevices of my belly button. I have a heart set on discovery.
An adventure I've wanted to take since I was a young girl, is a backpacking trip to Australia. I've never felt quite ready to take initiative as seeds of doubt and fear were planted over the years from well-intended loved ones. But I can't resist where I feel I am being called.
I would like to leave as soon as December 1, 2015; this would give me time to prepare by interning at my church for a second year of DLA.
1 year is the aim! While there, I plan on serving at a few Christian internship camps that host backpackers! The main one would be Attunga in Sydney. I will from there travel by foot along the Gold Coast!
My whole trip will cost me about $2,200. That includes:
*one way flight ~$1,200
*travel visa ~ $200-$300
*backpacker supplies ~ $200-$250
*passport renewal ~$200
If 100 supporters each donated $20, I would easily reach that goal.
If anyone has supplies to donate instead of money, that would be just as helpful! You can donate here on this site by clicking the "DONATE" button on the top, right side of this page. ANY amount is appreciated.
I have been petitioning this desire in prayer for a while now and would like to ask for support in prayer that His will be carried out. Some prayer requests I have are:
- shut doors if this isn't His will
- His timing
- prepare the hearts of people I meet
- travel mercies
- deeper intimacy with Him through the entire process
- to be surrounded and supported by people motivated by Christ's love
Thank you SO MUCH for your support, I can't express to you how much I immensely appreciate it!
