As most of you know I created this blog to keep all of you updated on my adventures in Africa, specifically.... MADAGASCAR! Yes, it's true, I finally decided to take the assignment in Madagascar where I'll be working with a missionary family, tutoring their children in English! Hopefully I will be able to post as much as possible since I'm going to want to document every single thing that happens.
Unfortunately I don't have a whole lot of details at this point. By next week I should have much more to tell everyone! At this point I still can't believe I will be living in Madagascar for a year starting in October! It doesn't seem real. I feel so blessed to have the opportunity to serve and meet the missionaries that have given their lives to spread the gospel in Madagascar.
If you had asked me last summer what I'd be doing after graduation I never would have fathomed it would be going to Africa for a year. In my mind I was going to be living in an apartment somewhere with a new puppy working in some kind of business job I hopefully got at my university's Career Fair...
Well...
either that or living in my parents' basement.
It's funny how we try to plan our lives out when they really aren't ours to plan at all. I constantly try to make my own plans and God shows me time and time again how his are always better. I'm excited to see where this trip leads me in the future. Who knows, maybe I'll stay another year and keep this blog running! All I know is I'm trying to not plan it out at this point. ;)
Anyways, I figured I'd go ahead and put a quick post on here to document my current status. :) I CANNOT WAIT to see what God has in store for the next year and am glad you'll all be along with me on this crazy journey!
And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation."
