This will be a short post. I just want to say thanks to all of you back home who have sent cards, letters, packages and emails over the past few months. It has been such a blessing to receive your encouragement and to know that I am being prayed for by people back home. Especially around the holidays! I feel truly blessed. As you have probably seen from the last few posts, God is doing big things in my heart and in my life. And I am learning that He shows me His love in a big way through other people. So thank you for loving me! And thanks for being a part of what God is doing here in South Africa!
