Ark International emailed today saying that my complete application, references and all, had been received today. They're sending it off to the leadership team today and will be speaking to me within the next few days about their response. They said they've already been praying for me. Which is very touching. We could all use a little more prayer in our lives, I think. So I guess I'll know for sure in a couple days whether I'll be heading to Thailand in January or not! I've been talking about it for so long like I'm definitely going; I'm a little nervous to hear back. Right now I'm just praying for the wisdom of the leadership team in their selection of DTS students and their response to me. It's all in God's hands from here.
