So, the time has finally come!!! 24 hours from this moment I will be sailing 30,000 feet above this beautiful planet, on my way to see dreams come true (in Africa, not Disneyland). The last three months have been a worldwind of adventures.
~I decided to return to Africa for the Summer
~I told everyone I met that I was going
~I have been given over $5000 from family, friends, and complete strangers
~I learned things in Nursing school that you do not want to hear about
~I have recieved over 3000 bandaids
~I completed year one of Nursing School while planning a 3 month mission adventure
~I have been counting down the days.....
NOW the Count has come to the end....
The last three months have been amazing but I know that they are but a small preview of the next three months. I am still not 100% clear about what I will be doing but I know that God is faithful and this summer will be a summer where DREAMS come true.
A few areas that need prayer as i go:
~Safety in travels (I leave saturday evening and Arrive in Pemba on Tuesday)
~The ability to sleep on the plane (four days is too long without sleep, even for me)
~Speedy adjustments to culture, food, and lanuage upon arrival
~The ability to walk into my giftings and be a blessing to iris ministries
Thank you for your Prayers and Support and I look forward to updating you within the next few weeks.
Blessings beyond Compare
