Sorry for my lack of update in this blog. Everything has been happening so fast. Even though during June I had a “break” I was still busy with Peace Corps trainings, events, or just meddling around the villages nearby talking and meeting villagers. And then some of you know I actually went back to America [...]

April 26, 2011 Hello all! It has been way too long since I last wrote in this blog.  I had been meaning to give some updates every time I went to my banking town, but there has always been some crazy amount of errands to run and a limited amount of time to complete everything.  [...]

Hey everyone!  Since I last wrote, so much has happened!  I can’t believe time has flown by so fast and it has already been a little over four months since I’ve been in Tanzania.  Next thing I know I’ll be back in the states.  But I do hope not too fast because I have a [...]

Hello everybody! It’s still so surreal that I’m in Africa.  And I apologize for my lack of keeping in touch with you all.  Much has happened since November 6th, 2010 and I’m sure as you can tell by the title of this entry, I have already moved to the village of Mavala, the place where I’ll be [...]

November 6, 2010 Karibu rafiki zangu! (welcome my friends!) I’m currently reporting in from Kihonda district in the city and region of Morogoro.  Adjusting to life in Tanzania, Africa has not been easy but I’m enjoying every second of it.  I apologize for the lack of communication the past 6 weeks I’ve been here.  My [...]

Hello blog world!  It’s been about a month since I’ve left my home for this safari (which means journey in Kiswahili) the Lord is taking me on.  And I apologize for my lack of updates.  But please do bear with me for I have limited internet access! So far life in Tanzania/Africa has been quite [...]

Life is currently _____________. I don’t really know what to say. VBS has been going on at my church this past week.  I co-teach the Juniors Department, which is relatively small, but definitely the way God wanted it to be.  I’ve learned how lazy I really am.  I only really taught two full lessons during [...]

I typed this on my itouch about a week ago. Today I realized more of how wretched I am and also how much I am in need of Jesus to save me daily.  I need his Holy Fire to cleanse me of my sins, to purify my heart, and renew my mind daily.  I’m so [...]

Dude, so today was pretty cool. First off, i fell asleep at lab last night at like 1:30 a.m. hahaha..waiting for the last part of my experiment, but thankfully my co-partner woke me up. anyways, i got home at like 2 something in the morning, went straight to bed, woke up at like 11:45 a.m., [...]

Pray for the battle going on in the spiritual realms, where the angels of the LORD are fighting off demonic powers. LORD we cry out, Send your Spirit to empower us. May we learn to love, for love overcomes any lies, deceit, or anything unholy. May we consecrate ourselves for you that you may be [...]

Life has been pretty amazing since I’ve last updated.   I’ve been wanting to update about a few things, but never really got the chance to do so because so many things have just been back to back leaving me really no time to just sit and relax and reflect.  My thoughts are pretty unorganized, but [...]

Last night, my roommate held a prayer meeting at our house which had an enourmous turnout considering that it was the night before finals was to begin.  I feel a bit foolish mentioning this, but I was a little irked at the beginning of the meeting.  I was waiting for the prayer meeting to start and so [...]

I think I’m frustrated right now.  I don’t know if there’s one main source for my frustrations, but together inside of me I feel like I am. 1. Finals have begun for some, but mine don’t begin till the night of the second to last day.  I have all this time to study, but I [...]
