A Whole New Experience

Uganda wow i cant believe its a reality now :) It was just over a year ago at the SRBC 2009 Christmas Pageant on the night of our performance that Rebecca Brown first mentioned this trip to me and i wanted to get more info not even sure if i could go. But as the months went by and we got closer and closer the the trip date and meeting after meeting it seemed like i was meant to go on this trip. And now i just cannot wait to leave and be in africa.
  My job in Uganda is to help in the teaching of making jewelery in the mornings and then in the afternoons i will be doing sports and physical education with the kids. Im so excited to be working with these kids all of whom have some sort of disability. Ive always enjoyed traveling and helping people and working with kids is my passion. Ive been to Venezuela and taught English and morals to the kids in the schools there. Now im being given the chance to go to Africa and really do what i wanna do :) Im so excited just to work with the kids and pour out love on them. Im so excited to go to Africa to go to a whole new place and experience everything is gonna be so amazing. God is great and he really works in mysterious ways by getting me to Africa.
 Im nervous for the plane flight cuz its like a very very long time but im excited because its a whole new experience. Im excited to try the food and meet the people and to experience a new country. Im just really looking forward to really finding whats important in my life and to be humbled and yet to have a great time and learn alot while working to help kids and people in Africa. Im so glad that ive been given this opportunity and im so ready to see what awaits me in Africa.
