Hooray!!!

Also, if you go to the TeachBeyond giving page, you can also donate! Just use my name and this account number (40525). Don't worry, this is not like a bank account number - it is simply tied to me! 

If you feel like doing an end-of-the-year donation, it's all set up - and I thank you in advanced!

There will be more info posted regularly here on my blog, so check back for more details!

Many blessings upon you and yours as this New Year begins!

 ~~~~~

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

(Old Irish Blessing)

I'm going to.....

Well, it's official! I'm going to be teaching at the.....

International Christian School in Budapest!!

Hooray! Adventures of Hannah in Hungary has begun! I have been offered an elementary school position and will be finding out what grade in the coming months. The sending agency that I am going through is TeachBeyond (check out their website here) and I am so thrilled to be partnered with them (since they really know what they are doing)!! The school is amazing and I am incredibly blessed to work under David Welsh, who I had the privilege of meeting along with his wife, Jennifer, in June at Cafe Louisa's in Old Cloverdale. Little did I know at that time that they were exactly who the Lord wanted me working for! I have heard so many great things about the school, and if you are interested in learning more, check out their webpage!⭅

There are SO many things that will be coming down the road for me in the next few months!! One of the biggest is raising prayer and financial support. I would so greatly appreciate you partnering with me and praying over me as I begin this support-raising journey! Pray that:

1. God would prepare the way for me as I begin support raising and preparing myself to go overseas. (more on that later)
2. God will protect me from the attacks of the enemy. I know this is exactly what Satan does not want me doing, and I feel certain that all areas of my life and work will be targeted. Pray for strength to keep pursuing what the Lord has called me to do.
3. God will give me wisdom as I begin to cover all the details. There are so many details, y'all! I find myself stressing over all the "to-do" lists that are building and all the big and little details that are being presented to me (ME - of all people) to accomplish. It is most definitely a God-sized task (as is this whole process)!
4. God will begin preparing the hearts of the people I will work with in Budapest (coworkers, students, missionaries and MKs, random people who God will put in my path). I wouldn't be going if there wasn't a need. I am so looking forward to being able to "give back" to the MKs, like so many wonderful young missionaries did to me in years gone by!
5. I will not have a lot of migraines during this process. I get them when I am stressed and exhausted (and I see some of that in my future...haha). 
6. I will have a good physical (in the next few months) and get a clean bill-of-health.
7. God will give me the ability to prepare to go, but also to finish the task at hand - teaching at Montgomery Christian School. Pray that I will be filled with energy and love for those that are currently under my care, and that I will not lose sight of the moments He needs me here by becoming enraptured by the things He has for me in the future. To everything there is a season.
8. God will provide a replacement first grade teacher at MCS to take my place for the next school year. 

 

  This is just the tip of the iceberg! There are so many things that will be happening in 2017 and I can't wait to see what the Lord has in store! If any of you are already interested in helping to support me on this journey, I would love to have your e-mail address so that I can contact you when I know more! 

My new e-mail is hhocutt@teachbeyond.org 

(I will still have my gmail account, but I will begin shifting over to my TeachBeyond e-mail as the year progresses). I will also have prayer cards and a personalized giving page that will be ready soon and will have more information about my adventure in Budapest! I will probably be using my blog (this one) as my personal newsletter for the time being, so save it as one of your favorites (this is a helpful link on how to do that) so that you can keep up with what's going on with the 
                    Adventures of Hannah In Hungary!
