I am so thankful that I serve a God that knows the desires of my heart and has a plan for me.  There are about sixty First Year Missionaries that I have been staying with in South Africa.  At the end of this month, the group will be splitting up into four different groups.  The groups will be going to Swaziland, Kenya, Johannesburg, or Jeffrey's Bay.  Whichever group you chose, that is the place that you will minister after Christmas.  The group for J. Bay was already chosen before training camp, so it was never an option for me to be a part of.  Before last week, I was thinking I would either like to go to Kenya or Swaziland, but after visiting Swaziland, I knew that it was not the place that I would like to do ministry after Christmas.  I was not sure where the Lord was calling me, because I was not excited for one place over the other.  The group going to J. Bay is leaving in the morning, so a few days ago all of the leaders were praying about the team.  They felt that the team could possibly use another member.  My name ended up coming up, as someone they felt would do well on the team, so they ended up asking me if I was interested.  I prayed about it, and got so excited.  I really wanted to join the team, but I asked the Lord to give me a peace about my decision if it is what He wanted.  I officially became a member of the J. Bay team Wednesday night.  I am beyond excited to see how the Lord will use me there.  My new team has welcomed me with open arms and have made my transition so easy.  I am so thankful that God has everything planned out, and will lead us where He wants.  Our team is leaving tomorrow morning, so that we can jump into ministry in J. Bay.  Please pray for safety while traveling, because it is about a twelve hour drive.  Thank you for your prayers.
