Sometimes--you may have had one of those moments--where God just lays something on your heart. I could, theoretically, post this on my old blog, which perhaps would be more suitable, but that blog symbolizes my "old" life (old in quotations because the last post on there was only a year ago). But, hey, it's my … Continue reading A Post That’s Not About Missions

Captain
Through waters uncharted my soul will embark I'll follow Your voice straight into the dark And if from the course You intend I depart Speak to the sails of my wandering heart Like the wind You'll guide Clear the skies before me And I'll glide this open sea Like the stars Your Word Will align … Continue reading Captain
The Same
It seems that the more I tell stories of some of the things that God did over the summer, the more I truly connect with them myself. Something that has really sunk in is how we (as white Americans) are really just the same as they (Zambians) are. It's easy, upon thinking about it and … Continue reading The Same
Laid Down
I found my life when I laid it down. The past few days, I have been somewhat overwhelmed with various emotions. I am currently awaiting the arrival of my staff paperwork for Overland, which leaves me in awe that this is real and incredibly excited for the future. This process also highlights some of the … Continue reading Laid Down

Month Three
The first weekend in July was the Mukuni Chief Ceremony. Zambia (as well as other nearby nations) are divided into chiefdoms, and many of them have annual ceremonies to celebrate their chief. Our base is in the Mukuni chiefdom, and it is Chief Mukuni that gave this piece of property to Overland. Because of this, … Continue reading Month Three
Month Number Two
Month number two is a wrap, and we head back to the states in just 23 days. 😦 It's crazy to me that when I first signed up for AMT, I wasn't sure how I would feel living in Africa for more than 10 days, but that changed extremely quickly. I couldn't imagine life anywhere else. For … Continue reading Month Number Two
Month Number One
It's officially been a month since we arrived in Zambia! We landed in Livingstone, Zambia, on Thursday, May 7th at about 1:45 pm local time (7:45 am ET). From there, we ventured into town for a quick stop at the grocery store to buy a few snacks, and then proceeded to the base to get … Continue reading Month Number One
From Darkness to Light
All last week, we were on our first of three expeditions into the bush. Now having two under my personal belt, it’s interesting to contrast the experiences, as well as the subtle differences in different areas of Zambia. This time, we were in east central Zambia near Chirundu, about an hour inland from Lake Kariba … Continue reading From Darkness to Light
Desert Soul
I leave in two days. I leave in two days. I leave in two days. I've surpassed my last day at work, my last full day with no appointments, and my last day at church. I've said farewell to my 6th grade girls and my two year-olds. (My co-leader even had the tots lay hands … Continue reading Desert Soul
