Prayers

First, I would like to thank you all for your continual emails, letters, prayers and thoughts. It has been so encouraging to know that so many of you all are praying for me as I am here in Belize!
God continues to amaze me. Everyday is filled with adventure and learning. I feel like I am being challenged and truly growing. Some days I feel exhausted and stretched to the limit, but God continues to restore me and fill me up. I look forward to going to school each day. Being in the classroom is so satisfying. To see the progress the students have made since the beginning of the year is encouraging. I am hoping that above all they see the importance of our Savior in everything that is being taught and that they understand the sacrifice that has been made so that we may have eternal life. This is stressed each and everyday at school, and I pray that these students will learn what a real relationship with God is and that they will not just have Biblical knowledge but they will also have the zeal to put this knowledge into actions to change the country of Belize.
As for prayer requests, the most immediate one at this point would be finances. As most of you all know, I did not complete my fundraising before leaving for the field. Because I am a one year intern MTW, however, allows you to enter the field without your full support raised, believing that it will continue to come in while the missionary is on the field. Yet, my support has dropped off almost completely. I know that God will continue to provide for me as He always has. However, there are certain expenses here that can not be avoided such as extension of stay permits, housing expenses and fuel for the truck. I am confident that God will make ends meet and that He will supply my every need. I know that Belize is where He wants me to be and that He will not leave me in want. Please pray for these financial needs though. If you are interested in financially supporting me I thank you. All donations are tax deductible and can be sent to:

Checks can be made out to MTW. Please mark all donations with my name, Julie Williams, and the account number 018249.
Please also continue to pray for direction for me. I feel like I am being used here in Belize and that there are so many needs to be filled. At this point, I can not imagine leaving after only a year. I know, however, that God will direct me and show me where He wants me to be. Please just pray for patience on my part as I seek out His will for my life.
Thank you, once again, for your prayers. It is encouraging to know that I have such a strong prayer team! Thanks also for keeping up with the blog. Hope you are enjoying it.
