They're here! The day has come and I'm so excited. Since i've been in Australia we've been anticipating this day... preparing for it. The past week we've been in staff training... long hours filled with lots of information and prayer. Now everything is coming together! I'm living in a house with 1 other DTS staff, Callie, and 8 girls from all around the world. I get to drive everyone around in a monstrous white van... which is slightly intimidating... especially since I JUST learned to drive on the left side of the road. But it's going to be awesome! I'm so excited to get to know all the students and to pour into their lives. this is so different from my DTS... 3 months in Australia and then 2 months of outreach. It's going to be a great and challenging experience for all of us.
This past week has been a bit of a struggle for me.... leaving home for 2 years is definitely more extreme than anything I've done before. But I already am feeling at home here... more everyday. I still miss everyone from home, and i doubt that will change, but i'm excited to see what God has in store for me here. I'm excited for all the experiences to come... to get out and see more of the world and to reach out.
I have been challenged by so much already... and i can't wait to see what happens next. Hello January DTS!
