Josh with friends at the African village


Making list and checking it twice, no more like 10 times

Maybe it's because I have memory problems, or maybe it's that I'm worried that I'll forget something important.  My list are not about shopping for gifts or even list of places to go and parties to attend.  No my list are about packing and moving to Uganda, Africa.  Yes, we are really moving, and I have 3 days left to get everything in. Clothes, books, ministry supplies, shoes, water filter, Oh yes, I must not forget my Bible and writing notebook.  I have many things left on my list to pack. So please forgive me if this post is not very long.  I have to go check my list... again....

Jessie and friends

So I started my blog.  Yes, I know, I haven't blogged in 4 years.  But sometimes I miss getting my thoughts down in writing.  Would you like to journey with me, with my family, as we step out in faith and do what He is calling us to do?
 In  about one month we will be packing our bags and as a family moving to Uganda, Africa.  Yes, we have been missionaries in the past.  Actually, Jason and I both have been raised as missionary kids, sometimes known as MKs.  Since we have been married we have lived about 6 yrs.of our life in Ukraine,
Now God is leading on another journey.  One which is exciting, scary, humbling, and sometimes hard.  But I plan on finding as much joy in the journey as I can. As God helps me, and I find and learn exciting and new discoveries along the way, I will do my best to share the with you.  That way you can feel like you are part of this journey as well.
 I do not claim to have it all together. I can tell you this right now, I know I don't have all the answers.  But I know Someone who does. I cannot take away all the pain in this wold,  but I can walk with them through their pain.  Some may not even know that they need Jesus.  I can love them and point the way.
I am a missionary, not because I have all the answers, but because I love walking along side others as they journey toward Jesus. Come to think of it, you could do it too, if you aren't already!  Why not start today!
