Bound for Africa

Today is the day!!! AAAAHHHH!!!!! 8 hours and counting until my plane boards. I am crazy excited and nervous and stressed! =) But all in the most wonderful way. haha

I wanted to let you know that I'm leaving at 4:20 today and will land Thursday at 10am South Africa time. (around 2am) I will be able to get online to let everyone know that I made it safe BUT...... the bad news is that while I'm in training I won't have access to internet or a phone. This is to mentally and spiritually prepare our hearts for the months ahead. Here's the time line:
Fly out of DFW: 4:20pm, Jan 13
Arrive in Johannesburg, South Africa: 10:00am Jan 15
Training in J-Burg Jan 15-Jan 26
Fly to Kampala, Uganda Jan 26th.

I will try and post upon my arrival Thursday to let everyone know that I have arrived, but then it will be the end of January before I can post again!

Please know how much that I miss yall already!! =) I wish I could take all of you with me. I am very ready though for this journey. Among all of the nerves is a peace that I am following my heart and spreading the wings that God designed for me. May all glory, honor, and praise go to Him. For it is through Him and in Him that all things are done.

I love you! Miss you! And can't wait to update you at the end of January!

One last note: Thank you all so much for your overwhelming support, encouragement, love, and prayers. I have been daily overwhelmed. God has used you to place a strength inside of me that I didn't know I could have. Thank you!
