So Friday a little bit after 5...my world seemed to come to a Big Stop. The persons BBQ that exploded just at the end of my building changed many peoples lives including mine. This morning is Monday morning and I have not been able to get in and see what condition my belongings are in. But is afternoon I am told that with my insurance people that I will be able to go.
As far as my plans to go to Spain. I am still going!!! I just have a lot of extra things to sort through. God has a plan and it will get all sorted out. I know there will be something good that comes out of this whole thing...even if it is me learning to have patients or learning to lean and trust in the Lord. Because I can't do this alone...and I have been so very blessed to have the support of so many people...I know I have always had it but it comes out even more when something big happens. I feel very blessed!!

Visa Update
So...I do have an update on the Visa process.
After a lot of research and quite a few dead ends...I finally got a very nice lady at the Spanish Consulate in Ottawa to direct me in the right direction. I have to apply with the Spanish Consulate in Toronto but this lady was able to figure out the right Visa for me. Since I will not be technically be working because I won't be getting paid. I am not going there as a student and I am not totally a tourist either. So there is this visa called the Youth Mobility Visa that I can apply for. So I can go there as a volunteer! The age range for this visa is between 18-35 years old....and I guess I am somewhere in the middle there hey!! ;) So I feel pretty relieved that I got someone that could point me in the right direction...but I'm pretty sure God had something to do with it too!!!
The next thing I have been working on is Travellers Insurance.
Like I was reminded the other day. God is in control...I can do all these things and struggle so hard by doing it on my own. I need to stop doing it on my own because I can't...this is not the first time I've had to learn this!!! God is the one that is bringing me to Spain to help the Smith Family...I don't need to stress out...God has a purpose and a plan for me, it doesn't mean it will be easy but it is worth it. He loves and cares for me because He is God and He made me!!!
Thank you for all the prayers and advice! :)
