I had a fairly productive week this week. Tuesday I went to the great city of Valdosta with my friend Deek. I went to see two of my old friends who live there and to talk with one of them about supporting me. I only got to see one of them due to a family emergency for the other friend. After that I got to spend the night with three other friends of mine who had recently moved to Valdosta to go to school there. So, it was a pretty reminiscent night.
My update for the week is that I now need $225 to go to training (I still have a week to raise this if I want to go to the next session) and $1,114 overall.

Been a while
It has been several weeks since I have lasted posted anything and I apologize for that. The reason for this has been a mix between the fact that I have been expecting several more subscribers (hello to you who are new!) and the fact that I simply don't have all that much to report.
The biggest news is that I am $200 a month closer than what I was when I last posted anything. So, I now only $300 more monthly pledges until I am able to go to training. The next session begins on Sept. 10th, so the next few weeks will be the deciding factors.
Other than that, nothing spectacular has been going on. I have started substituting again since the school semester has begun, which is a good thing.
I will end the post with some prayer concerns. Firstly, I would ask you all to pray for my support raising (obviously). Specifically that I would be more assertive in it, but also that I would do better at keeping up with you guys! I want to be closer to you guys than I am, and this requires more time calling and emailing you than I am spending. You can also pray for me while I am learning Estonian. I am able right now to learn grammar, but I won't be able to actually practice speaking the language unless someone comes around to help me with it.
