(Almost) One month down, one to go!

The time I am spending on the mission field is never easy to put into words. Each day brings new struggles, new victories. Living in this place is hard. It is teaching me new things about myself and about my walk with the Lord. After today, I will be in the village for 2 weeks. This will be a tough time for me-I covet your prayers.

I will try and finish this post..but if I cannot please forgive me. I have been sick the past week and I am not feeling well at the moment. I have a whole post written to type but I honestly just don't feel up to it. The devil attacks in tricky ways- please pray.

Sunday we were able to experience worship with the local believers at MJ. We headed back to the village that afternoon-this time they put me on the wings of the habble habble.

Tuesday was our medical mission day. We had over 100 families that were registered and over 90 teeth were pulled! I pray that this opens doors for us to enter homes and share the love of Christ with them. The most difficult things I am dealing with are a lack of strong leadership and sharing my evangelical beliefs with people of the catholic faith.

Daily I must be reminded that I am here to be a servant of the Lord. My strength is there and I know that God will give me guidance in making decisions. My flesh cries our for comfort but I know I can do this! I may not be able to post for quite a while-don't forget about me over here! Continue to pray for my team. We will be working diligently this week to disciple the local believers and I am going to try and begin a

"story time" in the common area. I am horrible at teaching but I am going to give it a shot. The devil gets in when I let my guard down the slightest bit. My dad taught me that "attitude is everything" and I will continue to remember that always. Pray that God gives me strenght to lead this group when I need to and that He gives me a contagious joy. The thoughts and prays that are relayed to me through my parents mean SO much to me-they keep me going! You all are the best and I am one blessed girl to have so many precious and caring people in my life. Much love to all of you!
