Thank you everyone who prayed for me!!!!! When I was in Massai Land I made a friend :) she was trying to teach me how to say "my friend" in Massai, Rafiki Yango in Swahili, but I couldn't figure it out. it was to much in the back of my throughout. She spoke a little Swahili so we were able to have small conversations. At the end she gave me one of her bracelets as a sign of our friendship :) It was really encouraging to make a friend even though I wasn't able to speak her language. God's love is universal.
Later in the week Kylie, me, and all the other westerners were able to share our culture with the DTS by teaching some worship songs. It was nice to be able to all worship together with songs I'm use to. It was a huge blessing to see them learn the songs and worship God with me :)
I was also able to see the girl I sponsor (Frida) and I meat her mom for the first time. I asked her mom to encourage Frida to go to school instead of staying with the cattle. She informed me that her desire is to see her go to school and make a life for herself. This was also very encouraging!!! Another person I was able to see was Coco :) Coco means grandmother in Masai. Last time I came here I meat a lady who became my sister's Coco and she told me that she was my Coco as well. It was great seeing her and dancing with her :) Kristen if you are reading this she also says Hi to you and she loves you!
Unfortunately I had a hard time breathing and felt weak a lot of the time. I didn't let that take away from what God was going to do though. God is good and He took control. Please continue to pray about my health that God will protect me. Also be praying for peace and joy. I have been missing home, family, my church family, worshiping with my church family and such. I know God is good and He will come through, but please keep these things in your prayers! :)
Thank you again!!!! I love you all so much!
