"We have been given enough money to get you off! When can you go? tomorrow?
Also, we would like to reassign you to Rwanda to work with the school there which is just beginning."
Wow! What an email! I received this message on Monday, April 19th and since then have been taking it all in. My support went from 50% to 100% in a matter of weeks, just showing that when God's time for you to follow him comes, he makes it happen. Now I have a lot of reading to do to learn about Rwanda and prepare myself for the many changes to come. I will be helping with the school in Rwanda for two years, and maybe longer if God calls me to another term.
I hope that you will pray for me during this transition. There will be a lot of paper work to do in order to get everything in order for me to live in a new country. The more smoothly this goes, the quicker I can get there.
My goal with this blog is to record the process of going to the field and my life once I am there. I hope to be able to share lots of pictures with you and even some videos of my future students.
If you would like to keep up with me on this journey you can subscribe to my blog and also, if you have not already been receiving my emails, send me your email address. Getting on my email list will give you access to all of my prayer requests and my newsletters. My email address is eleigh@vt.edu.
Thank you for reading and praying.
