:::part of the Gratitude Series--for info on the series click here:::
I have felt called to Africa since I was little. In 2006 the Lord opened the first door for me to spend time there. Oh, how I fell in love with that continent.
I am thankful for friends I have in Zambia and Rwanda. I am thankful for the children in both of those countries who let me be a part of their lives, if only for a little while, and for what they taught me. I am thankful that in November 2010 I got to share Africa with my husband. I am thankful that his heart is now burdened for this land as well, and I know that our family will have a place there someday.
Here are a few pictures from the three trips I have made to Africa so far. I've got friends who are blessed enough to go more than three times every year...as for me, I am thankful for this handful of trips and anxiously await the next one.
