August is finally here! We will depart for Peru early Friday morning. The thought is somewhat nerve- racking. It will be our first opportunity to utilize our clinical skills (since the completion of classroom studies), in a completely foreign country, with a people we have never met and in a language we do not understand. That can definitely elicit a fear factor.
However, I began to think about this very special people group we will get to meet, the conversations we will have, and the opportunities we will be a part of as we serve a God that is bigger than us. It is incredible. I have no doubt He is going to use us in ways we cannot imagine.
As for those of you who are journeying with us as you read these snippets, WELCOME! We hope that you enjoy the updates, picture and stories to follow. We want you to be a part of this adventure, but more than that, we hope you see how we can each be used in incredible ways in any place we are.
The next hours will be spent packing our bags, organizing donated equipment, and scrambling to gather the last few items on our checklist. During that time, would you join us in praying for adequate preparation and safe traveling? You are awesome!
A big Thank You to everyone who took part in making this trip possible. We look forward to sharing more with you after arriving in Peru.
Kristin
