Exciting news!!

First of all, I have been thinking about how I haven't been posting too much about what I have actually been doing on this internship so far. I have really spent the last month working on Social Media with GAiN and developing our Facebook page. I think I mentioned that in an earlier post, but some exciting things have come up that I want to share! 

Oct. 1-3 I will be traveling to Memphis, TN to do social media at a food packing event at Hope Presbyterian Church. We are hoping to create awareness for our page and gain more "fans". Hopefully we will be able to use facebook to track the food from the church all the way to the hands that will receive it overseas...but more on that later. Please be praying for this event, over the food that will be packed and the people who are doing the packing. I know that it is going to be an exciting time! 

Oct. 11-16 I will be traveling to Mount Joy, PA to spend a week at the Distribution Center at our October Packing Event. This is a whole week spent at the warehouse with thousands of volunteers and staff that come each year to pack different types of aid to be shipped around the world. I can't wait to be a part of this event and get to see another aspect of GAiN's ministry! We will be doing some Social Media stuff there as well so keep checking for updates!

And...I am going on my first overseas mission trip with GAiN Nov. 5-13 to Guatemala!! YAY!! We will be visiting schools and distributing Carepacks to the children along with some other ministry opportunities. I will continue to update as I learn more about the trip but please be praying for me as I prepare and also for the people we will meet. I can't wait!
