SO.
Im nineteen.
I live in my bestfreinds basement.
I work for Greg and Debby Cilia, at thier resteraunt, Gregoirios.
I dont make very much.
Im not in collage.
I dont have a car (although I do have a licence)
I have no plans for my life until now except this:
Im moving to Uganda for three months to work with:
www.lightgivesheat.org
I graduted last year from an average highschool with average grades, average friends and a semi average life. I moved out of my house, and in with my friend Susan and her parents, then she got engaged and I had to move out.....whatever no big deal. So anyway, Im in the average English 101 at the average community collage and God layed something not so average on my heart.
God threw this organization at me, Light Gives Heat. I could go on and on about it but for times sake, go to the website. So this was back in Januray/February. Ive been throwing my heart into this program for the last seven months. Since, my life has been far from average. God has been revealing His heart for His people to me in such amazing ways, it makes me wonder how i could be doing anything else with my life and be close to satisfied.
I board my plane at around 7 pm on tuesday, september 2nd and shortly after Ill be in Entebbe Uganda, on my way to Jinja, where LGH has set up base.
Ill be meeting the most amazing people. Julie, cant wait to meet you!
Ill be doing what God called me to do, way back in January.
Ill be holding babies and sweeping hut floors.
Ill be seeing the gospel lived out instead of in black and white on flimsy gold eged paper.
Ill be learning what LOVE really means, and about Joy and Hope and Resiliance and Beauty and Truth and all that jazz.
Ill be growing.
Ill be updating this alot, before I leave, not sure if anyone is really reading this, but if you are, check it alot, Im quite the chatterbox. Cant say how much or often Ill get to it in Uganda though.
33 days.
cant stinkin wait.
