Fundraising while Vacationing ;)

Russell, Katie, and I spent a night playing guitar and cards
together in Milwaukee!

So!  Last week I was in Milwaukee, and this week I utilized a blessing given to me in November: plane vouchers!  I had a horrible experience with a plane trip in November with a group from Concordia, and so we were all given a total of $350 to spend on a trip of our choice using the same airlines.  I used the tickets this weekend to go to Fort Myers, Florida, and spent a grand total of $25!



So now I am in Florida with my parents visiting some friends of ours!  I am so thankful for friends to stay with, for ample sun, and for the opportunities I now have to share about Macau.  I also had the opportunity to go to the beach and experience that again :)

I am making some contacts, and sharing my story as much as possible. :)

My parents and I walked across the bridge connecting Fort
Myers to Fort Myers Beach...and took a picture!

Next week I will return to the Milwaukee area, as I flew out of MKE, and will be leading a Bible study on Sunday about Macau.  I don't know exactly how it will work, but I will work with my contacts to get it all worked out.  I will be at St. John's in Glendale, Wisconsin to share on February 27th.  Let me know if you want to know how to get there!  I had lots of fun while in Milwaukee last week [got to tour wineries, spend time with great friends, see an international talent show, eat cafeteria food again (oh yummy...) and much more!!]  I cannot wait to see what fun is in store for me next week in addition to the fundraising!

Oh: more news!  I have been added to the LCMS World Mission list of missionaries, and my prayer card is now online!  Click here to get to the website, and type "ASMUS" in the "last name" box to find my prayer card.  The "Give Now" button is not up and running yet, but it will be there soon.

Carol, Lin, and me at the International Talent Night.  Don't
they look beautiful in their traditional Chinese dresses??

I don't think there is anything else.  Tomorrow I will complete one item on my bucket list: skydiving!  My dad and I are taking the leap together tomorrow!  We will be over beautiful Florida and will possibly scream the whole way down!  Haha, probably not, but wouldn't that be a sight...er...sound!

Right now I am going to go eat supper, and talk with the people I am staying with!  I am going off to small group later with my parent's old small group!

Until next time, adieu!
