Never in my life have I been more scared yet totally excited in my life!! I have had the opportunity arise for me to go to Kenya. Tonight I met with the missionaries that I would be going to work with to talk about what Kenya is like and what I would be doing. They are not going to live in a big city or anything remotely like what I am use to even with all of the missions that I have done. Africa is much, MUCH different from Latin America. They will have an orphanage there that I would be working with. As well as working with the soccer program that Michael Medlin is planning on setting up, and doing something with music but not sure what yet. =) So right now I am praying about all of that. I don't know when, how long, or really much of anything about this trip. It will be sometime next year. That's all I know right now. So, in writing about this, I am asking you to pray for me about this. Pray that if this is what God wants for me that HE would work it out according to HIS plan and I would not do my usual and worry about it. I know that if everything works out for me to go that I will be so blessed with all of the experiences that I will experience and people I will get to meet and children I will get to play with and I pray that I would be a blessing to the Kenyans that I come in contact with.
And please pray for the Medlins who will be leaving for Kenya in November! Their blog is www.medlinsinkenya.blogspot.com. There is also a website about the ministry that they will be working with: www.graceofgodchildren.com. Please check those out and be in prayer for the Medlins as they leave for Kenya next month and make the transition into African life.
