Two down...

...and one to go!

That's right, we have been on the field for 5 days now. We finished working in our second village today. Tomorrow we embark on the journey to the new and last village of the trip.

This last village, Kabwata, has been amazing. I have been so blessed to get to know so many children and amazing interpreters. I just love the one I had for three days, Brendah. Her and I just clicked. She is so full of love. Words seriously cannot describe how much I am going to miss her. Although, I am fortunate enough to be able to see her one last time on Sunday and keep in touch with her on Facebook.

Today, I got to witness to so many people...and by many, I mean about 58+. It was jam packed in the outreach room! I literally didn't get a break for 4 or so hours. During my time, I was able to have such a serious conversation with three lovely little girls. They wanted to know more about Jesus and the Bible. It was absolutely wonderful, and it just broke my heart...in a good way.

My heart is so filled with joy! This last village has made the trip remind me why I love being here oh so much! I have learned so many things, like more about the language, Zambian games, and how to dance African style - although I have learned white girls (and guys) don't have the hips to make it work, haha.

Although I am sad to say good-bye to this village,  I am looking forward to meeting new people, as we transition to the new village tomorrow. So until then, mwende bwino!
