Once again, it has been another month since I've posted. It has been fast and furious trying to get assignments finished and things packed for my first excursion of the summer. I think I concluded the semester with a lot of knowledge but with As and Bs in my classes. That is just fine with me...still made it out alive!
I will be leaving the good ol' US of A this coming Tuesday for Namwianga, Zambia. Thank you to all of you who have supported me financially and with your prayers. I am truly blessed by you! Even though I am very excited to be experiencing yet another country, continent and culture, I am nervous about what exactly will happen. Getting things in order has been quite a challenge. God is in control of all things and I will be leaning on Him to settle my uncertainties. Please pray that our group has safe travels and that we would bless others as much as we are blessed in return.
There may have been a point where I mentioned this phrase in a blog back in 2009, but I think it is still very true: traveling/doing mission work in other countries is like a horcrux (Harry Potter reference)...we leave a part of ourselves there and are never the same again. In our case, we change for the better and grow because of everything, which I am always encouraged by.
Let me know if there is anything that I can be praying about for you! We are Made for More, Chosen for Change, Loved for Life!
