3 days and a bit

(read the following paragraph in skittish flight attendant voice).

hello, and welcome. thank you for joining me on my blog through the African experience. here I will give you a bit of insight into my trip, and mostly let all you at home know I'm still alive and well. but for now...

I am here. 3 days away from my big trip. as of right now I still have a few major things to get done. my visa hasn't arrived from washington yet, I still have to book a flight from Maputo to Pemba, get a few bus tickets and find places to stay along the way. I know I should probably be more nervous, but I know that all of this is in God's hands. he has gotten me this far and believe me, that in itself is a miracle.

I have been soo so blessed by him, and by the help and generocity (sp?) of the church, and friends. thank you SOO much everyone who has helped me out with this trip financially, or with all the stuff I need to bring, or have just been praying for me. it is all so very appreciated. God is so faithful. all I ask now is that you would continue to keep me in your prayers, and leave me comments on here, or emails once in a while after I leave so I can hear how you lovely people are doing at home.
thanks!!
