coming home


greetings! it's my last full day in banovce and i am really pressed for time, but wanted to squeeze in one last blog entry. this summer has been amazing. the Lord did wayyyy more than i ever thought He would and with such grace. what i mean is, i really thought there would be turbulent times of loneliness, homesickness, language difficulties, possibly getting lost or mugged or who knows what? but it was the smoothest summer i could have hoped for. i miss: mexican food, laughing really hard, being fully understood, and maybe being able to get alone. i mean really alone. there's ALWAYS someone around, here, watching. the communists wanted it that way, i think:) no, i'm kidding. but really, yesterday i thought i was alone with...someone (blush) and along came a woman walking through the field out of nowhere. but to sum it up, God grew me here. i have learned more about grace and mercy in 2 months than i have in my whole life. i have learned more about what it means to love someone unconditionally than i ever have before. and i thank you all with an inexpressible gratefulness for your prayers and support. i can't wait to see you all. see you soon.

"someone (blush)"... someone? details, indeed!! :) ...well whatever. i'm real glad to hear that your summer went well. i'll be praying for your upcoming re-entry into the US - physically, emotionally, etc. and may you have a wonderful time of solitude with your tacos while being fully understood. i mean - you get the picture. :)

Welcome back! Missoula is whole again. Well, except that Scott, Jamey, Clay, and others are gone now, but hey it's better nontheless.
