These are my siblings.
And the one in the middle is going to Cuernavaca Mexico to serve the Lord for 18 months. She leaves December 18th, exactly one week before Christmas.
When she opened her call, I experienced a steady stream of excitement in my gut. the call didn't throw me. actually, I don't even remember my heart step over a beat, or my breathing change pace. all that changed was the image in my head of where'd she'd go. instead of mentally tossing around the regions of possibilities, the image in my mind was finally able to settle...on mexico.
Of all places! none of us anticipated that. I thought Spanish-speaking....but I was getting more of a Guatemala feel. that's what we get for completely dis-including mexico as a possibility :) haha
I'm just glad she will be able to speak Spanish fluently! what a huge blessing.
And influence lives through her gentle, soft-spoken, unshaken testimony and determination. she will bless so many and be blessed so substantially.
4 months! just enough time to let it sink in, and party it up!
Go ASH!!! : ))
