Diddy’s song “I’m Coming Home” came out when we were in Rwanda
(Month 6) when the thought of actually coming home was so far away and I
thought that the day would never come. Now it’s just around the corner. My 11
months are up and the 11 countries have flown by. It’s time to come home. 

God has sent me beautiful reminders before, during and I know
after of his purpose in me being where I was for the last 11 months. When 11:11
pops up on my watch or someone says it puts me at ease. This is where God wants
me, He put me here, this was not a mistake. I know in the future when I see 11:11, I will think of all that I have learned and how thankful I am for
these months of relying on God.

In one week I will board a plane that will take me to JFK
(America, Home Sweet Home) I’ll sleep a night in the airport, then board
another airplane in the morning to Burlington, VT and will be reunited with mi
familia (minus Becca ) But she is only a week away when my mom and I make our way to PA with a quick
stop in MA and CT for the beautiful wedding of my friends Kay and Josh. Once I get home (PA)  I’ll
pack up my camp stuff and make my way to Seneca Hills for their last week of
camp! Then the next weekend I have another wedding with my dear friend Nick. Then vacation with the Fam. in Western
PA! Relaxing on a lake for a week, yes please!

Those are my plans for the near future. Being home is
exciting, scary, and an unknown. I’m a changed women. I’m not quite sure how or in what ways it will effect me. I’m a verbal processor so I’ll want to
talk about it. 🙂 Be patient with me, because I know I’ll need to be patient with
you. 

 I guess all I can say…

It’s time to come home a changed women of God excited for the
future and the love and learning that will come with it!

Thank You
