Bye Guys

Just want to ask you again to keep me in your prayers as me and my team set off. Specific prayer I will try to post as much as possible. Thank you again for everything! I will be praying for you all in States as well.

India India

I know it's been a while since I've posted anything but i promise their will be more to come! Things have been super busy here at school trying to find some free time here and there! But tonight's my last night of school  here and then I'm going home to Branson, Mo. then off to Nebraska for Christmas. Right after I get back from Christmas I will be leaving for India. Thanks to God and everyone's prayers and support God has supplied all costs needed. The amount was around $7,150.00! Not only was that payed for, but God allowed me to bless people with the money I made working in Branson before I came here. God also allowed me to help support a missionary in Cambodia who ran out of money and God supplied it through me at the last second. God is truly amazing and has provided for my EVERY need! The only thing I ask for is prayer for Protection in India, God's Spirit to lead us as we share The Gospel, and also Direction after I get back from India.

Times Get Tough

Been in intense spiritual warfare for over a week now. Not gonna lie, its been some of the hardest times of my life. Wish I could say everything's going fine, but its really not. Anything and everything satan knows to do to attack me he's done. He;s attacked with everything he's got this last time including the girl I love, friends, family, myself. and group members at this school. Nothing seems to be going right. Through it all God has been with me even when I am down, lonely and hurting, but please stay praying for me. Just really need prayers prayers prayers right now. I know God will bless me for giving everything I had to Him, but just really need some encouragement to stick with this. I know I will come out a stronger man after this course but it's the most intense thing I've ever done. Thank you all for everything you do for me, it truly makes a difference for me. For real!

Dayton Dayton

Well, what can i say? Umm... i'm really really busy here at this DTS! I'm talkin like one free day! Sunday! Really missin everyone in Branson alot, but gotta stay here! There's many reasons why im here, but the main reason is to help me learn ministry within groups! I could do individual ministry by myself all day but adding different denominations/views you learn how adapt to that. It's really hard, but were all here for the same reason, and that is to preach the gospel. Which is ballin forsure! People here are real nice and am blessed to have them on this crazy adventurous ride! Doin homeless ministry on Monday and Community Outreach on Tuesday and pretty much every other day is packed! We have alot of lectures, which are very deep! We have daily chores, studying, prayer and intercession, worship, and weekend trips to pray for towns and areas that don't have God such as Toledo, Ohio: Human Trafficing! Glad to be here but its not as easy as I was expecting, holding on with my dear life. How to explain DTS would be closest to basic training or trying to drink from a fire hydrant! We get alot of information in a short time but take in all we can. This makes us very drained almost always, but God provides strength to make it through! Hope everyone is doing allright! Say hi once in awile if you get the chance! Peace Out Girlscouts!

Made it to Ohio

Everything is going good. A little hard to get used to with the new environment, but overall the teachings, food, and people are real great. Went on a hike the other day with the group in the rain for cardio. Gotta love that! I ended up selling my pickup on the way up to here to my cousin which was a blessing! Also, have about 5,000 dollars raised which is a very great amount. Thanks to all who helped out and was obedient to God! Really appreciate everyone and all your support whether it being financially, prayers, encouragement or whatever!
