PRAISE: Create mission trip wrapped up Aug 24 - We had a good time hanging out as a team and debriefing our summer in Toronto. The last small group workbook I will be working on is almost ready to go to design. PRAY: Sept 5 I start my new role on the Global missions team. Pray that I would transition well to this new role into this new season of ministry. I continue to chat with 3 women through our online mentor centre.
