I started my travel day at 2:30 A.M.
from Slovakia and got to Tanzania at 7:50 P.M. On the last 8-hour flight I must
have eaten something bad because I wasn't feeling too well. When I landed at
the airport there were a ton of people needing to get through customs, the most
I had ever seen at the KIA airport.
As I was standing I started to feel
light headed and prayed that somehow God would get me to the front of the line.
I estimated in my mind about 2 more hours of waiting.
All the sudden I knew I was going to
faint so I turned to the guy behind me, told him and then felt myself black out
slowly to the ground while someone caught my head.
I woke up with my legs elevated on
some guys hips and people feeding me sugar and food, asking me a ton of
questions. As I regained strength they all said, "get her to the front of
the line!"
A very helpful lady got me to the
front within 5 minutes as well as carried all my luggage. When I went outside,
I was expecting a shuttle diver to pick me up and instead was surprised by
my awesome teammates Peter and Tammy!
God works in mysterious ways but I
like His style. Never predictable!
Last week was recovery, settling
back in and getting into the rhythms of the Land again. Building is resuming
but at a much slower pace. One of our carpenters also had another son and he
gave us the honors of naming him (Baby Moses, Musa in Swahili).
This week we have a Maasai seminar,
training course for the Pastors Peter and Tammy have been pouring into over the
years. It's going to be full and intense but the Wild Hope Land is a rest
retreat, so of course there will be a lot of time for that as well!
Stay tuned for photos on the @Wildhopeinternational
and _DG_805 Instagram pages as well as my Facebook and Wild Hope's page!
Happy Monday
