This is my nephew Kyler. We have a big trip planned to the "Big Apple." This has been a dream of his since I spent the summer there a couple of years ago. He asked me if he could go with me sometime. I told him of course, but he'd have to get his parent's permission. This was alll the encouragement he needed. He got the ball rolling with convincing his mom and dad this was a great idea. Long story short, we're getting on a plane tomorrow for five exciting days in New York. We are going to stay with some close friends of mine in Brooklyn.
I really feel like this trip is a part of the greater story that God has for Kyler. His bold, childlike faith of dreaming about New York then believing it was going to happen is encouraging to me. He told me he wanted it to be a "vacation" and a "mission." Hopefully on Saturday we are going to a soup kitchen to serve the homeless. We have some sightseeing planned as well. I can't wait to experience this adventure with him. I pray that God would bless us with all kinds of unexpected, unplanned blessings as well. We'll keep you updated every step of the way.
