"a fortunate stroke of serendipity"

3 more days

Sometimes I'll look back on my trip to Ethiopia and wonder how in the world my parents let their 17 year old daughter take a month off of school to go? 
For whatever crazy reason- I am so grateful that they did!
 That was really the movement that began my journey and landed me here on my way to Uganda. It has changed my whole life and the passions I persue. 
I read a passage from the last day of my Ethiopian trip that says, "I will come back here. This was good practice, but I want to help more." I am going back to Africa. I haven't forgotten the people I will always love in Ethiopia but I'm going to meet the people I will always love in Uganda. 
Thank you to my wonderful parents who allow me to presue what my heart tells me to do. 
Also, most importantly, I am so grateful to my Heavenly Father who blesses me with the opportunities to serve His children of the world.
