Mission Year Anxiety

There is so much to do! We’re starting Mission Year in about 5 weeks and it’s starting to get hectic. We’re putting together our September newsletter, gathering addresses, figuring out what to take, coordinating with the couple we’re going to live with. Our orientation is in 6 DAYS! That means we’ll fly to Atlanta so see the place we’re living in and meet the people we’ll be working with. Then we’re flying to Chicago for the nation wide Mission Year orientation. Then when we get back I’m packing and painting. Then a week after that I’m driving down to SoCal for my sister’s wedding! Then back to WA for one week and then to NorCal to move all our stuff to storage and then finally to Atlanta! Whew! As you can see just the thought of it all is overwhelming. What’s weird is that I will never have a normal Washington week again. I won’t have a normal peaceful week until after I start getting used to living in Atlanta. As a perfectionist this is difficult to take. Please pray that my anxiety decreases.
