first update!

Hello Family and Friends!
Thank you for visiting my blog! I really appreciate your love and support in all of my mission work. You have done so much for me and I really appreciate you all. I hope you all had a great Christmas and are gearing up to start the new year! I know I am! 2009 is the year I will be in Uganda! How exciting is that?!

This is my first post on my Uganda blog. I am SO excited about this and I am SO excited that you are on board! It's very cool how technology can allow you to be so involved in this entire process. I hope I can use this to let you know where I am spiritually with getting prepared to go, and also to share ways that you can keep my team and I in your prayers. Yall mean the world to me.

As I mentioned in my letter, I have been doing so much neat stuff to get ready for my internship in Uganda. I will start my African Seminar and Mission class when school starts on January 12th. I am ecstatic! I have also been missing Africa Devo over the break, and I am excited to get back to that as well.

This will be all for my first post, but I will definitely be updating again soon. I want to leave you with the scripture that is used in the URL address for this site. I feel like it really speaks to my heart while getting prepared to go.

"May God be gracious to us and bless us and make his face shine upon us, that your ways may be known on earth, your salvation among the nations. May the peoples praise you, O God; may all the peoples praise you."  Psalm 67:1-3

For His Glory, Heidi
