As children we always quantified our countdowns by number of sleeps. Did you do that? Tomorrow is the BIG DAY. we fly from Toronto to Paris and Paris to Cotonou for a total of 14 hours on a plane!
A lot of you know my plans for the next year but to catch everyone up to speed... I am being sent by Serving in Mission (SIM) to rural Benin where I will be working as a nurse. I am so excited to use my nursing skills in a place that bears an immense burden of disease and desperately requires more health care workers. Not only that but as a Christ-follower I am called to care for widows and orphans in their need (James 1:27) and to help heal the sick (Luke 9:2).
I'm not totally sure what the internet situation will be like over there but I am hoping to use this blog as a way to give updates of my experience overseas! Stay tuned!
