Celebrating One Year!

Today, Jan. 10, marks one year that I have been in Uganda. These 12 months seem on one hand to have really been that long, but then, on other hand, the year has seemed to fly. I am so, so grateful for God's goodness, faithfulness, protection, provision and the many, many blessings He has bestowed on me during my time here. I am not sure I could sum up what all has taken place in the past year. Perhaps, I will try in a future post. : )

But, for now, I am thanking God for this privilege and honor to be a part of His work here. : ) And, I am excited and anxious for all He has in store for 2011! : )

I was honored to recently be interviewed by a young woman from my home area in Oregon. Lucia shares the interview on her blog, which can be found at: http://one-beloved.blogspot.com/2011/01/january-featured-daughter-of-vision.html.

Have a blessed day!

    And cool new layout! It took me a minute to realize I'd clicked the right link for your blog! ;)
