Well it has been awhile since I last updated. So much has happened since then. Training was completed on November 9th, and than I flew back to Oregon with just a month to finish preparing for my departure date of December 11th.
It was wonderful to be back with family and friends to worship with them, to spend time fellowshiping, to be back home. Where is home well for me it is where ever God has me laying my head down at night.
So the month home was spent purchasing things still needed to go with me, pack the action packers then repack the action packers. Continued communication with the airlines, saying my farewells. My church Emmanuel Bible Church held a commissioning service for me on December 9th, than the evening of the 9th, they planned a farewell party which I like to say was a PRAISE THE LORD PARTY!!!! It was a wonderful time.
December 11th was departure date. I arrived in Africa on December 12th, after 21 hours in the air. Praise God for the good flights.
So what am I doing now. More prepartion,getting to know people, adjusting to an 11 hour time difference. Repacking the action packers, yes once again. New sounds, new food, new language. Praise God.
TO GOD BE ALL THE GLORY
