The buses with all the other teams have left. My team and I are waiting to get on a bus to Dublin to begin our ministry with the Lighthouse. There is no more training; the race is beginning and there is no more waiting or preparing. It is finally hitting me that I am in this for a year. I am not returning to the States for a year and that is terrifying, but I know God is going to do amazing things.
While we are still in a first world country, with most of the luxuries of America, the people here are still so different. I don’t know if it is the constant cold and rainy weather, but most people seem so cold and hard in the city. It will be very interesting to start working with the poor in Dublin to see how similar it will be to America. I am ready to begin working with people and seeing what God has to do.
