[ 25 Days and Counting ]

It is hard to believe that in 25 short days I will be making the journey to east Africa. Many of you have asked, 'are you ready?' And my answer, 'no!' It seems so unreal that I am actually leaving. Besides beginning to clean out my room of years and years of papers, books, and junk that I have collected during my college education ... I have not started a thing of preparation! Like I wrote, it seems so unreal that I am actually leaving. I have been waiting for this day for YEARS. YEARS. And finally it has come ... dreams really do come true. I knew all along that God's hand was upon this vision and dream. And He has blessed me with this amazing opportunity to work at such a great school!
