I am so excited to share my latest news with you. I am going to Burkina Faso in March to minister to widows and orphans with Acts Ministry. A small group from our church (including my mom) is going over for 10 days.
You can checkout their web site at http://www.acts-burkina.org/php/anHome.php Burkina Faso is a landlocked, western African country located above Ghana that is in a state of great poverty. The ministry we are working with seeks to help widows learn a vocation to support themselves and helps orphans to get an education and daily meals.
Grandpa and Grandpa Peck have graciously agreed to come up and stay with my kids so that I can go. All I can say is that I am really, really looking forward to this. I know it is the next the step for me and that God is going to speak to me during this trip. I just have this feeling that it is going to be one of those turning points in life. Please pray with me for God to direct our family. He has really been burdening my heart to get involved with the poor and forgotten ones in greater way. So we will see where this next step leads.

I'm so excited for you Angie and I'll be praying for God's guidance and direction. This really sounds like a neat ministry. And I'm delighted to hear you're able to go on this mission trip. Thankfully one step at a time is all God requires of us! Your response of yes Lord is powerful and I believe God is going to use you and bless you abundantly for it.

Woohoo! How exciting! I'm so happy for you pray that God will, in fact, speak very clearly to you before you go and while you're there. So excited! :)
I am also excited! I can't wait to hear what the Lord will speak to you during this trip!
