Having spoken with the wonderful people who've helped me make lots of decisions about all of this (aka the people at the PCUSA office, namely Essie and Bridgette), I've decided to wait and apply for the internship this year. I really feel like God is calling me to do mission now, and if I'm able, the internship later. So no Louisville. I'm okay with it though.
Now, it's down to Miami or Nashville. I'm in the process of setting up my final interview with Miami and then I'll just have to pray and think a lot.
This morning I wrote a letter to my congregation about my mission, asking them to help in many ways. I asked for help to store things (the large stuff), for financial help since I have to raise a ton of money, and for prayers, letters, phone calls, etc.
For those of you reading this, I ask all of this from you as well. Please contact me to find out what I need and how you can give it to me. Thank you so much. :)
Today is July 4th. Happy Independence Day! I, unfortunately, am working at the bar today, but it should be a slow day out at the airport because I don't think many people would be flying today. I hope our new bar has finally opened and I can go work upstairs in the concourse at the new bar! How exciting it would be! Plus, a nice benefit is that I get paid time and a half. :)
After work I'm planning on going up to Center Point to Kristen and Mark's to celebrate with a bunch of friends. Long drive from the airport to CP, but oh well. It should be fun.
I hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday today. God Bless America (and every other country out there too).

Happy Independence Day Emmie!! I hope everything turns out alright and you get to go where you want to, whether it be Nashville or Miami :). I'm thinking Nashville is your first choice right?
Wish I could be up in CP to hang out with you and everyone, but we'll see each other soon enough.
Take care Emmie!!
Dave
