I really don't know how to start the posts I put on here...haha...I guess I'll start with my journey down here. As everyone knows, I pack anything and everything. If you ask me for something most likely I have it. When I weighed my luggage at home it was like 67 lbs and it's suppose to weigh no more than 50. I had to down size A LOT! When I weighed it at the airport I was still overweight but the person checking me in said to take something out and she would take my suitcase. It still wasn't 50 and under but I'm thankful she just took my bag anyway. Then it got more interesting at the Atlanta airport. Anyone who knows me that I have no sense of direction and I get lost very easily. They had my flight at three different gates so it was really confusing especially for someone like me. haha. But God helped me through everything :) When I got to Hobby airport in Houston two people from Mission Centers of Houston, Kristen and Haley, welcomed me and my friend Megan. We went to the center and got settled in. Last night we just hung out and bonded. The girls in my dorm area are absolutely amazing and sooo nice. Today we had orientation and a few hour of first aid. I'm officially certified in first aid! I'm praying though for no injuries because what I learned I really wouldn't want to do to a real person. I get my assignment of which center I will be at. There are three centers: Gano, Fletcher, and Joy. My future blog things will be more interesting because I'll actually be able to tell you stories and what's happening in the lives of people in the inner-city of Houston. Oh and I can't to forget to talk about the food. The food is incredible. People sacrifice a lot to donate food for us and we feel so thankful for the meals we get. It's just like eating at home. I guess that's it for now...I'll start telling stories of the ministry here soon...You'll get to hear how God is mightly working in everyone here! But until then take care...
In Christ Alone,
Amanda
