"what's your name & where are you from?"

that's still happening. we all had a chance to introduce ourselves to everyone the other night but we all forgot... we'll get this down eventually.

lectures started yesterday & they're really great. we're learning about prayer & the transforming friendship with Jesus. we have five 45 minute lectures a day. i sit in the back. which was cool. until i realized they leave the doors open for fresh air & i am barraged with a constant flow of cold. it keeps me awake.
so, yeah. making friends. talking to people. it's nice having roommates because we go to meals together & all that. built-in friends. you know. there are some really great people here. 

the internet is only on here & there & it's really slow when it is. i get really impatient so blog posts may be few & far between. sorry. just know that i'm doing well. & i love you all very, very much. if anyone can scrape the money together, i'd welcome any visitors. i won't hold my breath, but know that you're always welcome. :) & i'm still in need of your prayers. seven months is quite daunting from where i stand. something that one of the staff said today was that we are all in the center of God's will. God would not have provided the funds or allowed us to be accepted if He didn't want us here. that was comforting to hear. we were asked to share with the people around us what we want God to do in our lives whilst we're here. i said i want to gain a passion & direction for my life. but also to be patient & wait on His timing. so, there's that. have a wonderful tuesday, dearests. 

the end.

  1. oh, dear girl! i pray for you every day and then some. your car is here and you are not so that makes me a bit sad. i was going to click on your 1,212 facebook pictures so i could get all filled up with thoughts of you but i knew it would make me miss you more...so it helps to know you are in the center of God's will and He is great and good and is taking really good care of you...love you, sweets!
