First Timer

Well, I am not exactly sure how to blog. Actually, I lack in computer skills in general, so not only is this a first time blog post (hopefully that is the correct terminology) but this happens to be a large stab at modern technology that I have been a bit hesitant to take. I do realize that this is much easier and letters are a tad out of date and less convenient and efficient, therefore I have become a blogger. I am arriving in Arizona on August 21st and will be leaving for Africa on the 22nd. We are flying into Entebbe, Uganda and then traveling to Rwanda where we will spend the first half of the semester. 

I cannot express my excitement, my fears of something totally new and completely unknown to my experience of life for the past 20 years, and I especially cannot express my great need for prayer. God is wonderful and mysterious; we certainly do not serve a boring God. Please pray that I will have the constant willingness to submit and surrender myself to His use and to His greater plan.
