Thank You!

My last update was definitely a downer! There is no denying that! However, I am so happy and thankful for all the support and prayers I have received since then! And because of all your encouragement and with a few more days to actually get to know the area I am in, I am feeling a LOT better about everything! The day after I last posted, I went to my YWAM base where I got to meet majority of all my leaders and got a tour of the base. It was absolutely amazing. The people were so wonderful and loving and it was great meeting other people who also have come from the States. There are people there from Tuscon, California, Indiana, Kansas, and Colorado too! It was such a blessing to meet them and to hear their stories. But the best part was hearing about how much the LOVE it here in Australia. I know I am going to love it here as well but I also know my homesickness isn't going anywhere. But that will be the beauty of my growing relationship with the Lord while I am here. I know He is going to help me through all of this. So! YAY! I am getting excited and anxious to finally start my schooling! However, one thing I am not looking forward to is of course having to pay for my living. And YES, i DO know this is how it works in the adult life! Haha but I also know, it is FAR cheaper in America. Let's just say in the last 5 days, I have learned to REALLY appreciate my home and my country despite all our problems. :) Right now I just continue to ask for prayers and for support as this journey truly begins! Also keep praying for my father's health! He is doing a LOT better today but please pray it stays this way. He deserves to have an amazing visit too! Thank you all so much! The next time I update my blog, I will be moved in a ready to start my schooling at YWAM! Praise the Lord! I love you all and really appreciate you guys! You're all in my prayers as well!! AND remember! If you want to stay in personal contact with me either facebook message me or email me at chrissy.white1994@gmail.com

BLESSINGS! Christianna
