God will Provide all you need in his timing!!! :)

Hey All!

So I know that it has been quite a while since my last blog. Sorry about that. I wanted to make sure that I had something to write about. I now have a lot to say.

Over the last couple of weeks I have been talking to my parents and we have been praying about what God wants my next steps to be. Since my start in Uganda I have had a huge peace about staying. However I didn't know what God wanted me to do. We prayed about what date I should change my ticket to and May came to all of us. So I called the airlines and talked to two different people about changing my ticket and they both told me the same story. I had an unchangeable ticket! I had never heard of such a thing before. I don't understand why they wouldn't want to charge people more money for changing there tickets. It seems like a money maker to me. So anyways I was very crushed about the whole thing because I had my heart set on staying in Uganda. I continued to pray and ask God what he wanted to do. I knew that I can't stay if it wasn't God's will. As I prayed I asked God to give me a peace about going home because I had made up my mind that that's where he wanted me. As time went on I still wasn't feeling a peace about going home, but it was only days before my ticket was scheduled to take me home. As I prayed I asked God to open up an opportunity for me to stay.

Last Friday I believe he answered my prayers. One of the long term staff members at Amani came and asked if I would be her Nanny and help her in the mornings with her daughter. She would give me a place to stay in return. Then in the afternoon I would be free to check out other ministry opportunities in and around Jinja. It's Amazing to see how God opens doors and gives you a peace about where he wants you. I am so excited to see what the future has for me here in Uganda! What God has planned!

Even though I have no return flight now I know, that I know, that I know, that this is where God wants me and I'm not worried about not being able to go back to Oregon. I know he will provide in his timing all that I need.

Thank you all for your prayers and loving support!!! I need all I can get.

In Christ,
