This adventure is a study abroad program which offers a social work internship overseas. So, while I'm there, I will be interning and going to university. I'm guessing I will be doing many other things as well. If I've learned anything from travel, it's that expectations are completely unnecessary. The best way to enter a new culture is in a humble manner, ready to learn. Because, let's be real, until one actually experiences a specific culture, he or she cannot be an expert... Which can be really unnerving. So, Ugandan culture awaits me and I am very, very excited to learn new things and to be laughed at constantly (... That just goes with the territory).
So, here I go... Again. In life, we generally think that the more we do something, the easier it gets. I have officially arrived at the conclusion that leaving isn't one of those things. The more I go, the harder it becomes... But I have full confidence that this is where I should be going and this is what I should be doing. I'm praying for peace. I'm praying for trust. I'm praying for safety. I'm praying that we can be a vessel for the love of Jesus. I'm praying for good relationship once we meet the rest of the students. If anyone wants to join me in praying for these things, we would appreciate it.
I am most certain there will be many more posts to come!
