Finally!!!!

I can blog now!!!

The entire time I was in Ethiopia I was unable to blog because the government doesnt allow it, crazy I know...but I am now in Kenya and able to access it so you'll be hearing a lot from me...

most of it will be pics but ill write a few things here and there...

    I'm excited to finally be in Kenya, but I have to say I really miss Ethiopia. It was amazing there and getting to co-lead some teams was a great experience. So over the coarse of the next couple of days I will probably post some stories or pics from there as I am still getting settled into Kenya and don't have much to report about yet...Although we are staying in a pretty amazing home...Ill post some of those pics now.

Also, I just got a phone so if you want to call let me know and Ill send you the number...Oh also, Im going to add pics online as well, ill post that address as well...More updates to come soon

Thanks for all your support!

Thanks!

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone for their support. I feel so blessed and it's really blown me away to see the way everything has come together. 

It's hard for me to ask for help, but Ive really been trying with this whole process, and I've been overwhelmed and very very thankful to everyone who has provided support in some way, whether its financial, helping me move, encouragement, letting me unload my thoughts over lunch, or distracting me from my overwhelming thoughts...Hope to see as may of you as possible before I leave...

Thank you thank you!

2 1/2 weeks and counting!

   So I know I've said that me going to Africa is right around the corner for a while, and now, it really is...All I can say is that overall I feel ready to go. Part of me definitely wants to stay and live my comfortable life ( why do things always get better just as youre about to leave?) but the other part, the majority, feels like its my time to go and I have a peace about it... So hopefully I'll remember that as I'm stepping onto the plane to go...

    So I'm new at this blogging thing and unfortunately thats all I really have to say. But I do have one important update regarding where to send support once I leave the country.

Make all checks out to "Reaching Beyond Ourselves" and put my name on the memo line, so they know whose account to deposit the check into.

The address is...
