I'm going to abseil...

Yup. You read that correctly.

"What is abseiling, Erin?" Well let me tell you. I am going to scale down the side of the tallest hospital building in the world. Apparently I have a bit of an adventure streak in me now, Lord knows why. This past summer I went sky diving, but that was for my own benefit. This time it's for my students.

The charity I work for, Springboard for Children, is hosting this fund raiser to provide the money needed to tutor children in socially and economically disadvantaged areas of London and I signed up to help.

(*gulp*)

That being said, I would really appreciate your help doing my part, which is to raise 250 pounds. Every penny (no pun intended Mom) counts! I have set up a website for easy, secure donations that go straight to the charity.

Thank you so much for your continued support, love, and prayers as I continue my adventures across the pond!

Speaking of adventures, I've been seeing more of this beautiful country. Here are some pictures for you of York and Rochester, which is a city that Dickens visited many times and referenced in many of his novels! I was pretty much in heaven. 

Love and blessings,

Erin
