Wild Adventures

Many of you may have noticed my random Hawaii posts and countdowns.  What you may not know is that the trip is much more then just a getaway with Dustin.  This trip was actually birthed out of me being asked to teach at GO midwife during their doula week. Dustin and I will be on the north shore of Oahu for 3 nights and 4 days and then he will fly home and I will fly to Kona on the Big Island.

So now you are probably asking what the heck is Go midwife.  Well let me tell you.  GO midwife is an amazing organization that is training up women to serve women during childbirth in the United States and around the world.  The GO midwife school now has two locations one is in Kona on the YWAM base there and the other is in Homer Alaska on the YWAM base there.

Go Midwife

If you know me at all or have ever read my blog you know I have two major passions in life adoption and childbirth.  I am over the moon that the LORD would allow me to be a part of teaching these sweet women about being a doula.

I will try to write in the next few weeks leading up to my trip about the need for quality respectful care for women.  Please join me in praying for the women I will be training and what the LORD has for me as I delve back into the world of birth.  If you would also pray for me I would so appreciate it.

Prayer requests:
That I would be led by the holy spirit in all I say and do.
That I would have time between now and my trip to effectively prep and plan.
That the LORD would lead me in my planning on where to focus my attention.
That I would be at peace while I am away from my family as I know I will miss them.
Pray for protection from the attacks of the enemy.
And of course anything else you feel led to pray for.

Isaiah 40:31
But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength.
    They will soar high on wings like eagles.
They will run and not grow weary.
    They will walk and not faint.
