Trinity's Road to Rome

January Prayer Letter (in blog form)

Who knew that my work as a missionary would begin before I ever set foot on Roman soil? God did. He knew that in me telling people about my new road ahead that I would have the opportunity to engage in dialogues about Him and what He has called me to. Along with that I have the chance to transition well. This means that I can leave one ministry running well, with a new found interest in missions and I can get to Rome excited and prepared to fully enter into my new ministry there!

My first month as a member of the Rome City Team has had some great moments. I thankfully got the opportunity to meet Mike Davis who is my new Europe Director. We met over coffee with a group of people and then got to share lunch together. It was an encouragement to me to hear him share about the great need for Gospel, because I am already facing some opposition as to why go to Rome instead of a place like Africa; now I have the assurance that I am going where the need is greater than it has ever been. Along the same note, I had a great conversation with my team leaders that bolstered my faith in what we are going to be doing there.

they snapped it New Years Eve in Rome. I just Love it!}

My favorite story this month is that of God starting to supply my needs in a surprising way! I went out for what I thought was a simple lunch, before I even ordered the owner and I got to talking and in the midst of our conversation she asked about my missionary journey. I filled her in on the fact that I cannot leave until I have raised 100% of my support. She kindly responded with an offer of money towards my trip, and before I finished my lunch she handed me a gift of money. It was such a God thing! She was an answer to my prayers that I had prayed earlier that morning.

In March I will be attending two training events; the first is a vision trip to Rome, to meet Brian and Sarah and get a lay of the land and then I will fly directly to Colorado to attend a support team building seminar at Glen Erie. I am really looking forward to this combined trip, because I will really get a chance to fully engage with the ministry and the people God is calling me to serve.

Please be praying with me for:

• Gods continued provision not just for me but for my whole team.

• Brian and Sarah as they have dinner with their Landlord and his wife that they may continue to build that relationship!

• The transition for me as I continue to work at Felton Bible Church with the youth full- time and have started work with ReachGlobal.

• My students and my volunteers as they go through this change with me.

• My upcoming training and travel.

• My teammate Craig as he too is preparing to go to Rome.
