In one month today I head to North Africa on a mini-ministry trip. Last year I went south in Africa,
and now the door has opened to step into the northern part. I have never been an
“Africa-girl”- Latin America has been my heart... and yet I find myself travelling
to this continent still so unfamiliar. But sometimes the best move is to just walk
in the direction of the open doors.
It might sound
dramatic, but just to clarify: it’s a 7 day visit not a life-time move. Going
to help a contact-become-friend with her project reaching vulnerable teenagers.
It’s new and pioneering and exciting! Part of me feels so unequipped, and yet I
am so honoured to get to be a part of this in a small way. So, after navigating
the challenges of figuring out the best dates and finding flights that don’t
require 24 hours of travel I am set to go.
And as I prepare my
hope is that some of what I know, and most of all, who I am, can be a blessing
to my friend and her team as they also step out into new territory.
Too many details on an
open blog isn’t always the wisest of ideas (although I find much can be said
between the lines), so if you want to know a bit more, you can click this link
