The Beginning

I have arrived at my destination and just begun on my journey! In a way it was like coming home. The heat hit me like a wave and the beauty of the land took my breath away. It is midsummer and very hot. I sat out today for maybe half an hour and am already sun burned. I am sure that is a consolation to you all back at home in the cold;) The hills and the coastline have a beauty unlike anywhere else. I have no words to explain it now so I will send pictures sometime.
There are so many returning people from the Cpx school last year that it almost felt like a reunion. This entire week is spent with All Nations staff sharing our purpose and goals. Hence, we are a little more focused this time around. We have our places of ministry and some have launched the projects that have been on their heart.
I will be working once again in Red Hill. That small community that was burned down by the fire. It is green now and all of the houses have been painted. It is familiar which is nice but there are a lot of new faces thanks to the continued work there. The team there has been praying for another women to join their team (they are 5 guys and 1 girl). They have a growing number of ladies they reach out to so this is an answer to prayer for both them and myself. I have had it on my heart to start a discipleship group with women so this will be a good start.
I know that God has a great deal in store for me here. And I am excited for it even though I know that it won't come without hardship. Even in the first few days it was hard to see why I had come back and how to continue. But God is faithful and always sends confirmation. The more I walk around, talk with people, and see; the more I feel like this is one of my homes. This is where God has placed my heart for the time being. I love it!
