Hello from Mozzy!!!

It's crazy to think it's only been 2 weeks since I've been here. Honestly it feels like months! Days go by really fast, but a whole week feels like forever. I've been really good physically, mentally and emotionally. Does mean I don't have my times of missing people though...I'm just not crying all the time and thats nice :)

Daily life here is great! I live in a SMALL house with 13 other girls, which I was nervous about (girls can be difficult to live with) BUT God is good. We all get along so well and I think I've only been annoyed twice haha! I share a room with 6 others so our room is a bit crazy, but I've been so blessed by them. I go to school mon-thurs from 8am-1pm and have fri and sat off to do some extra activities. On Wed. afternoons I work with the Mama's in the sewing school. These women come from the village and work by sewing to provide for their families. I had hoped to work with young girls who were in prostitution  but I'm not sure that will happen this time around. It's hard for the kids here sometimes just because we're here for 3 months, build relationships and then not all of us stay. Most of them are used to it and have solid people in their lives, but it can still be difficult.

Last weekend I went on outreach. My group, which is different then the girls in my house, were one of the first groups to go! We got dropped off in a village with some Mozzy Pastors, slept in tents (it poured rain our first night....I loved it because it felt like home :) didn't take showers, preached the Gospel, prayed for people, watched God touch the rejected and feared for my life everytime I use the restroom :)! The village we went to was a Muslim village so it was a little difficult to minister to them, but God is working there! I sat with the Mama's mostly and I can't tell if they loved me or just thought I was absolutely ridiculous! I attempted to help cook and carry water on my head....they just laughed! It was all good though because I laughed too.

Gods working in me and showing me more and more of His GREAT LOVE. This has been a good time to check my motives and die 100% to my self. God's rooting out every bit of me AND I welcome it! My hearts desire is to look like Him and as we become one, I am. I'm hungry and He FILLS! AND what I love, He fills all who are hungry and you don't even have to be in Africa. Be desperate for Him and ask every morning for the Holy Spirit to posses you. We are a glove....a glove is useless without a hand. It has purpose, but no power. You don't put on the Holy Spirit...the HS puts you on and we are nothing without HIM!!! So we ask that Holy Spirit you would fill us and flow in and through us!

I love you!
