"...And they admitted that they were aliens and strangers on earth. People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them." Hebrews 11:13-16

6 Days

So I've only six days left before I get my head shaved for a fundraising event. I'm starting to think about it a little more and I'm feeling a little more nervous about it.

When I came back to school this semester I was in my room unpacking and this thought came to me that I should offer to have my head shaved as a missions fundraiser. I told Vicki about it and she told me that the missions rep had wanted to do something like that for College Connection. So now it's all worked out and I am getting my head shaved. Did I mention that it was in 6 days?

There are some benefits to this though. I've always wanted to shave my head but have never really had the "right" opportunity. Well graduation pictures are taken and I have 3 months until graduation to go my hair back. Lucky for me it grows quickly.

So I will post some pictures during and after the shave. I don't know who is going to be shaving my head yet. They're having a draw to see who the lucky winner is. I hope they know what they're doing!!

I do think though that I should be allowed to wear a bandana or toque in chapel because I don't want anyone mistaking me for a temple prostitute!!

Kendra, your sacrifice is such an inspiration to the rest of us. I don't know about you, but I tend to get reallllllly vain and fleshy when it comes to my hair. But you are despising your flesh...so I really look up to that. Man I hope you don't cry when they shave your head - it's gonna be hard for all of us! :)

MUCH love!
