summer is here & so am I

  I haven't posted a blog in nearly three months. Life just took off after Traffick Jam 2013 and it hasn't done much slowing down since. Summer is fully here now which gives me a little more free time, but I seem to be good a quickly filling that time up agian. Here are a few updates:

•   Our Traffick Jam event was very sucessful; we raised over $4,000 for the Hard Places Community working to end child sex trafficking in Cambodia! There will be a few changes but I'm planning to be involved again next year to hopefully raise even more funds to rescue even more children from the horrors of human trafficking.
• I joined the twitter world of tweeting! @heathergrace717
• I fell in love with dates! (The kind that grow on trees, not the kind you go on to eat food) I'll be posting a recipie for date bars soon!
• My love of running has an outlet again & this year I'm running 5K three to four days a week. I'm looking at the possability of running a half-marathon in the fall too.
• And currently the most exciting update: I have travel plans for this fall! I've been invited to join a team traveling to Bangkok to bring some hope & love to the red-light districts and potentially other parts of the city too. Since my trip to Mozambique last summer, God has been reminding me how much of my heart I left in Thailand so I'm excited to go back & see what He has for me there. I am looking forward to catching up with some friends during my 10 days there as well. I'll be posting more details as I get them so stay tuned!
