Life has been such a whirlwind lately. I have a problem staying in one spot for too long, lol not really but it sure does seem that way. I can’t believe that it has been one year since I moved back down to Riverside. I’ll be moving back in with my parents at exactly the same time I came to move down here a year ago. September 30th is my last work day and my last day in Riverside for a while. Sigh, so much has happened this past year. I’ve become an avid swing dancer, met wonderful and amazing people from both ISP and dancing, become a member of a fantastic church and developed relationships with autistic toddlers that has changed my life.
St.Vincent is beyond words, thinking of that adventure brings me to tears. No worries they are tears of joy. I have fallen in love with my team. Each and every one of them are such amazing individuals. I can’t imagine having gone without anyone of them. They people of St. Vincent were phenomenal! I come from a Hispanic background and I’ve still never seen the kind of hospitality that they gave us. Their hearts for God were to be admired as well. I learned so much in watching and listening to them then I had in a long while. They strive to live the gospel and I thank God for their desire to serve. I learned a lot about myself from this journey as well. I know more fervently than before what my weakness’ and strengths are. This is especially helpful before I go to Central Asia. Life is a changin’ and I’m not going to complain. I’m excited for the journey that God has brought me through thus far and eager to see what He has in store. Until then…aur’voir!
p.s.
Here are a few pictures from St.Vincent. I’ll post some more later
