Updates: I have some wonderful news, and much to my mothers relief!! This Monday, I received a call from Ensenada, Mexico, and the leader there told me that there would be a Discipleship Training School in June! SO Ensenada, here I come. I am trying to get together all the visas and necessary items for going to this school. I leave the morning of the ninth of June, and as my mother seemed to notice, that is much less than two months away and approaching rather quickly. Here is an update on the set costs of the trip. The school with the outreach phase include $5,000 and plane travel is $500 and up considering I don't know where the outreach will be. So I am guesstimating about $6,000 total.
Prayer Requests: That God would eliminate all fears and anxiety, allowing my heart to solely rest in HIM. Also pray for the Lord to prepare the way in which I am to walk, break down barriers so that the gospel will be received, and carry out all He desires.
Above is a compilation of beautiful pictures of Ensenada.

Lauren - Only a few days to go before you leave. Just wanted to let you know how very proud we are of you! Your heart for the Lord is evident in everything that you do. Oh what the Lord can do with a submitted heart!!
We will be faithful to pray for you daily and anxiously await news of your mission work. We love you!

Hey Lauren!
I hope everything is as you expected it to be, and more! I know these first couple weeks could be really tough, but let the Lord be your strength! I am praying for you (and your mom) every day. You are so brave, and I admire you so much! I am also a little bit jealous of this opportunity you have. Through you, the Lord is going to touch so many lives, and He will change yours as well. And don't get discouraged-your Spanish will improve so fast, and it won't take too long til you forget your homesickness (or most of it anyway). My family says to tell you they are praying, too. Let me know if there are more specific things I can pray for. I missed you at the beach, but you are certainly at a better beach now! I love you!!
