Going To Italy For Two Weeks
PostPosted: Sat May 14, 2005 7:22 am
I'll be gone for two weeks starting Monday, May 16. Certain members of the touring choir and the band at my university are going to Rome, Firenza, Monterubbiano, etc. to perform in various places, including The Vatican (for mass). We're also doing tons of sightseeing as well.
There are a couple of concerns I have about this trip:
If you guys could, please pray that God watches over us all on this trip, everything from the flight there, the duration of our stay, and the flight home. I'm excited about the trip, but the idea of being on a plane that long makes me incredibly nervous. I know that if it's time for God to take me home, it's going to happen regardless, but I would rather not be terrified the entire flight.
I also ask that you guys please pray that the participants on this trip won't make severely stupid decisions...as people are likely to do when overseas.
Last, but not least....
While most people are excited about partying and stuff on this trip...I'm actually taking this as a "spiritual journey" of sorts (although an expensive one XD). This trip away from everything for two weeks will give me a LOT of time to do thinking and do some spiritual searching. I'm seeking a lot of answers to many questions that I have while on this trip. I ask that you guys please pray that I'll receive answers to the questions that I have, and that I'll stay focused on God and find Him wherever I look. I hope to come back with an even stronger spiritual focus, even moreso ready to do God's will and go where He leads me.
Thank you guys for your time, and I'll miss you all SO much!! Please take care!
