It's time to start praying about going to Africa again next summer! I honestly can't imagine not going back, but I want to make sure it's God's plan for my life. Please join me in praying about this opportunity! If I go, I want to go a few days early to spend time with Samuel who I'm now sponsoring every month. This mission trip cannot happen without the support of family & friends, spiritually, emotionally, and financially...so be in prayer about the support that will be needed if I'm called to go back.
I have sponsorship packets for all the other boys that were in my group this past summer, so please let me know if you feel led to sponsor one of them or would like more information. I would LOVE to share their stories with you. They are precious and they NEED you!
I haven't updated this blog in forever! Not too much is new...I'm still loving my job working with the homeless at Catholic Charities. They are a blessing and I learn so much from them. I'm continually reminded that if not for God's grace in my life I could find myself on the other side of the social worker/client equation. I still think about Africa, my boys, and Samuel at least once a day and I dream of the day I get to serve on the mission field full time. But I'm also learning patience and trying to be content where God has me now. That includes continuing to serve at my church on the praise band and at least for a little while, singing for the youth praise band while they look for a new vocalist. I'm also teaching a new group of adorable 7th grade girls who I already love! Maybe we should also pray I don't burn out too quickly... :)
