We packed almost 30 suitcases/hockey bags full of stuff that we are taking to the Orphanage. It's going to be an amazing time!!!!! Thanks for your prayers and your continued prayers:) I will blog next when I am in Amsterdam! 

Things to pray for:

-Safe travels

Thanks! 

Counting down the days!

Hey everyone! I hope you all had a good weekend. Guess what ?1?!?! 3 MORE SLEEPS!!!!!

I am very excited to be going to Uganda again. God is going to do some amazing things on this trip. There are 17 of us that are going on the trip. Our team is called the "Amina" team. Amina means love. As the hours are ticking by, I just pray that we will be prepared emotionally, physically and spiritually. We have many things lined up for the trip and going to be experiencing some new things.

I am almost done packing!!!!! My goal this year as well as last year was to try to get all of my stuff in a carry on suitcase! We'll see if that happens again this year. Haha! I just have a few more things to pick up at the store, I have to to print off my tickets and then I am pretty much ready to go! I would leave now if I could! I am so pumped and ready to go. Time has sure flown by. On Thursday night, we are having a packing party at my church where we will packing around 30 some hockey bags full of stuff that we are bringing to the Orphanage. Then on Friday we will head for Calgary and fly fly away! I will try and post a blog either Thursday night or Friday morning before I leave, it will probably be a really short blog.

My boyfriend "Grant" will be heading to Belize this weekend on his missions trip which is very exciting. God is going to use in him in lot's of ways to show God's love to the people there.

Things to pray for:

-We will get everything we need and won't forget anything.
-That we will be ready emotionally, spiritually and physically.
-That we won't be stressed as we are getting things ready.

Thanks so much!!!

Getting to know me

Hi everyone, this is my first blog so please bear with me. My name is Mikayla Andrushko and I am so glad that I am alive today sharing my life stories with all of you :) Here are a few things about me: I have a huge heart for missions, I have been to Africa and I am going again in 11 days to an Orphanage that my church built. I love photography! I will post a few pictures below. I am done school, I graduated in June of 2013 and I am currently taking a Christian college course called Perspectives. I currently have three jobs...I work at Shoppers Drug Mart, I house clean...(did I tell you how much I love house cleaning?!?!) and I absolutely love it, I am part of the Street Team at the radio station 90.5 Shine Fm where I walk around with the mascot during events. My family is crazy...but I love them! I have two brothers, who are 9 (almost 10) and 6(almost 7), they are very wild and they are so crazy! I used to have a Dachshund dog named Kylie but she passed away January 3/14. I have an amazing boyfriend and if you are my friend on Facebook, you probably see some of my posts are about him. Anyways, he loves the Lord and he is off to Belize on a missions trip in 13 days! We love travelling!

5 things that I love doing are:
-Smiling..I love smiling!
-laughing, I love all the time, laughter is good medicine!
-Sharing God's love. I love telling others about God and how amazing he is.
-Shopping. If you know me, you know I love shopping :)
-Dance parties, I absolutely love having dance parties! They are so much fun aren't they?
