For all of you who want a short answer of how my summer in Bolivia was, my answer to you is: "A blessing from God." This summer truly was a blessing. I'm so blessed to have formed relationships with my host family, host missionaries, teammates, youth group, and camp Kewina staff and campers. Every day I find myself thinking about something that happened this summer, or just about the people I met and the places I saw. God continued to teach me about his love and grace this summer, and about evangelism. Through many instances He showed me the importance of living out my faith so that others can see a difference in me. We should be so totally in love with God that our actions change because of Him.
Saying goodbye was hard, harder than I was anticipating at the beginning of the summer, and I miss Bolivia so much, but I know that God has a plan for this coming year. He has a reason for bringing me to Bolivia this summer, and for bringing me back to school this year.
Today I had to wonderful opportunity to witness the professions of faith of my sister, Kristina, and one of my best friends, Laura. What a blessing it is that they are willing to stand up and publicly profess their faith and be fully welcomed into the body of Christ! =)
I will continue to use this blog to process my thoughts and to let you all know about any more traveling adventures that come my way (as in study abroad... and hopefully other missions opportunities).
Love!
Prayer Requests:
continued adjustment back to American culture
safe travels to school this week
