In Zambia you are normaly greeted by saying " muli bwanji" which means, how are you?
You would then reply with 'bwino" meaning good or fine. I love the African language, and hope to learn alot more on this next trip there.
Today was our first official Africa 2012 meeting with the SCRUBS group. we will be traveling with a group of 13. There has been some change in my trip the past few weeks. Everything in my life is always last minute. Anyone who knows me well enough knows this!
So i had purchased my ticket with the Scrubs group, planing on july 17th into August 17th. However, after alot of prayer and talking back and forth with the Luwizhi's, the missionary family there, I have decided to stay on another month. So after many phone calls and emails with my so very helpful travel agent Julie, I will be returning home september 17th.
Two months in Zambia Africa. This will be a journey! and i am so excited to go. only 3 weeks left.
The team i will be working with is so fun, loving and supportive of eachother. After only have met them all this one time at the meeting today, i feel like iv known some of them for years. We all get along and share our compassion for Gods love of people and this beautiful country.
As these short weeks go by i will need alot of prayer, for packing, money support, and strength to leave my life i am so used to here and get out of my comfort zone a little and move across the world for two months.
I am so thankful for my loving family who has and will always support me through this. for my parents who make this possible and have given me such encouragement and strength.
I am one blessed girl.
