Having spent most of November traveling I am looking forward to spending Christmas in Jacksonville, Fl. I spent Thanksgiving with my family in Fort Walton Beach, Fl, drove back to Jax for a day then headed up to North Carolina for a couple of weeks. I was at CIT which is a training center for missionaries; I did my pre-field training there before I went to Cameroon, Africa. CIT also does a debrief/re entry program, hence my week there. It was an invaluable time. There were four other missionaries there; we shared our struggles, encouraged one another, prayed for one another and looked at future possibilities for ministry. I cannot put in a nut shell or even into words how precious and needed that time was. When debrief was over I headed to Roanoke Rapids, NC to visit amazing friends; David and Stephanie with their sweet girls Sadie and Ana. Then onto Winston Salem, NC to see Julia; good friend who just returned from Tanzania, Africa. Aaaaaaand back to Jax . . . praying about what the Lord has for me here in the States (for how ever long the Lord would have me here). I miss Cameroon so much, I need to get my heart and head here, wanting to be "all in" here. I'm hoping to find a job that uses the heart God has given me; to work with children or women or youth; discipling and drawing others toward Christ. I'm also dreaming a bit about school . . . just dreaming for now; medical school, nursing school, counseling. .. we'll see. I'd appreciate your prayers! : )
