Dear friends, I have some good news today. Firstly, I have completed 50 hours of service at the orphanage. The administration had a meeting this week, and they decided to invite me to continue serving with them for a year. That is really good news for me, because I've been in constant prayer concerning whether this is really suited for me, and about alternatives, but despite how different and difficult this work is compared to anything that I've done before, I've been able to cope. Praise the Lord!
And on the side of that, they now have a room to accomodate me! It has 2 beds, a desk with window view, half a porch, and a sink and closet. It looks really comfortable to be resting in, and it's at the orphanage, so I won't have to commute to work at 4am!! That's the best thing really. And for the first month, starting next Thursday, they're going to allow me 2 day offs per week to wrap up things at my church. But what's really amazing is that after the first month, they will still allow me Sundays off so that I can go to my own church and fellowship. I think that's a really good blessing, and it will help re-energize for each week to continue to spend time with my friends at the church, and with the youth.
It'll also allow me to share my journey with more people than just on this blog, which I am intending to do. So.. today's my day off, and I'm going to some cleaning around the house, and some cooking, and also some swimming later. It's going to be a great day! =)
I'm going to start asking people around me to support my work, now that it is confirmed that this is what I'm going to be doing. I need both prayer support, and financial support. Please do keep reading, and praying. If you would like to support me financially, please pray about it first, and let God decide whether you should support me, and also the amount that you should commit to.
