Tender TN Christmas

I can't believe this year is almost over, but before this year ends I want to update you about what is happening now and into this next year. 

I have been mentoring 5 girls who have been in the Discipleship Training School for going on 8 weeks. I have seen some amazing breakthrough and them stepping out in ways that are such blessings to witness and be apart of. A few weeks ago I even got the chance to help lead worship at a conference up in Ohio, which was a childhood dream come true. Helping with this school has definitely been stretching physically, mentally, and spiritually, but has been one of the most wonderful times of my life. There is something about following God and walking in my calling and diving deeper into it. 

As we are winding down from this school we as staff are going to get to go home for Christmas, where I will also get the chance to drive up to St. Louis, MO to represent the base at the Urbana Conference. I never thought I would get to go home and kind of expected that I would be here in FL for Christmas. Thankfully Sarah and Michael Young also are from my home town, so I am going to hitch a ride up with them, and most likely back down after they take a trip further north to Michigan, but as we all know there are expenses in traveling. We have figured that it will take $300 in gas just to get to TN and back. As we live off of monthly support I am asking that you pray about sending one time gifts so that we will all get to spend Christmas with our families. I also ask that you pray about giving so that while I am at the conference I will have a budget to eat on. This trip will be the last time we will all get to travel to see our families for at least 6 months because we are all going to be full time staff of the next school that starts in January. At this point we have 24 confirmed students and will max out at 30. We all will be mentoring again, planning all their weekly ministries times, arranging and planning the extended outreach at the end of the school, then leading the outreaches. After just being part time with the current school I know how school is going to be challenging but also very exciting. I ask that you be in prayer for Sarah and Michael as they are leading this school and that you pray that the Lord sends the staff needed to assist in the school. 

If you feel that you would like to give towards us getting home for Christmas and me getting up to St.Louis please contact me at mistylwallace85@gmail.com.
