This means quite a few deputations, as well! As I have traveled the past five weeks, I have been so thankful for the relationships formed over the years. I\u2019ve received such a warm welcome everywhere I\u2019ve been. And I have been delighted to form new friendships and partnerships as well.<\/p>\n<p>I am currently in California, enjoying time with family while also visiting supporting churches and friends. Today I had the privilege of speaking to the third-grade classes at our local Friends school during their \u201cmissions\u201d week. We talked about what it is like to live in Ireland, the size of \u201cgiant domestic spiders\u201d (that is a real thing), why Irish names are hard for us to pronounce, and that being a missionary is mostly about loving people because Jesus loves us.<\/p>\n<p>In the next weeks I will be in California, speaking to churches and small groups. In November I will travel to Ohio for EFM Board meetings, and the chance to meet some new people as well.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, I am at 82% of the recurring gifts necessary to meet ongoing monthly needs. I\u2019m hoping to return to Ireland in early January. This is dependent upon my support level being at 100%. I am so thankful for the positive responses I have had so far. It is very encouraging to me.<\/p>\n<div>\n<table style=\"background-color: #c8ced6;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1gOnSWym4XY\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<p>There are two ways to support me in Ireland, through prayer and through financial giving.
