let me state again, i am having major issues with this website. i am unable to post pictures for some reason and it is pretty much an act of God that i am able to get the text to post. maybe it is doing this because of something i did. i would not put it past me. if i do recall correctly i remember i was playing around with the whole thing a couple of weeks ago so i might have done something i wasn't supposed to do. oh well, we will cross our fingers and hope the problem fixes itself.
but anyway, i wanted to let let you know i will be gone for a week or so. on tuesday we are leaving for zimbabwe. all of the people in our mission are going down there for our week-long Annual Missionary Training Meeting. i am not too sure what to expect although from what i hear we will be taking care of some business issues (boring) and discussing strategy for zambia (semi-interesting i hope). all i know is that i am looking forward to hanging out with all the journeymen in our group. that should be a lot of fun....there are 9 of us. we will be staying on the zimbabwe side of victoria falls. i am excited about that. i will now be able to see the rest of the falls. i went to victoria falls (zambia side) a few weeks ago with a volunteer team. the falls were absolutely amazing! there was so much water and mist that it felt like it was raining! it truly was an awesome experience. there really are no words for me to descibe it to you.
so if you think about me in the next few days, could you please pray for safe travel to, from, and through zimbabwe....feel free to pray this for all of our missionaries traveling.
the day we get back from zimbabwe me and stephanie will be meeting up with a group here on a volunteer mission trip doing ministry in 5 different orphanages throughout Lusaka. the group is from texas and is associated with Pine Cove Camps. we are excited that they have asked us to join them but at the same time we know we are going to be super-busy and will be exhausted. the team will be here until august 9.....so if i do not update the website for another month, you now know why.
