well i am leaving on a jet plane... i don't know when i'll be back again!

hello everyone!! i hope you are all doing well! i am doing great! i finished working about 2 weeks ago...which i am very glad about! this summer was a good one but also very challenging! this last week i was down at the coast... so i got to see mikayla and her family for a little bit. i am now excited though because i am going home to mongolia for christmas. i actually leave in 8 days!!!! i am not completely sure how long i will be there for. it depends whether i go to ywam or not. i am in the process of applying for a dts in perth australia which starts in jan. so if i do end up going i will head right from mongolia to australia. and if it doesn't work out i am not sure what i will be doing... maybe hanging out in mongolia for a bit longer. i have a couple prayer request though... one is that i am still waiting to get my passport with my mongolian visa in it back. two i am supposed to take my driver's test to get my N the day before i leave. i haven't had too many opportunities to go driving so i am kind of nervous... especially because it has been snowing here and it is supposed to keep snowing and i have never driven in the snow. also i am not sure about ywam. and one more thing is that my dad has had health issues for a couple years and it isn't getting better so he keeps having to go back to the doctor. i would really appreciate your prayers!! well i love and miss you all!! ps-if any of you don't know what you are doing for christmas you can always come and visit me in mongolia!
