It's time to ramble on...
Well, the time is finally here. It's officially my last night in the states! Tomorrow I hop on a plane, from Charlotte, to travel all the way across the Atlantic Ocean to Africa...for 9 months! I feel like it has been a dream for so long, and now that it is actually happening, I am overwhelmed...but in the best way possible. I couldn't be more excited to travel with two amazing friends and serve God in the process.
We all just finished an encouraging and uplifting time of prayer with the three families, and it has really calmed any nerves or anxieties that I had. It has replaced it with a true sense of peace that this is what I am supposed to do, and no worries...because it is in God's hands. There is no where I would rather be!
Anyway, it's getting late, so I think I am going to call it a night. But, I can't wait to get to Kenya. I can't wait to meet the people. I can't wait to experience a new culture. I can't wait to hang out with the kids. I can't wait to travel Africa. I can't wait to grow in God! Until next time...Kwa heri (Goodbye)

Hi Austin!
Doug and I are rejoicing with you as you take your first steps in Kenya! Wish we could see through your eyes! We've checked out the HOme of Hope site and the children are just dear and look so happy. We know they are going to form a REAL attachment to you!
Doug and Kathy
