Howdy! Wow! I can't believe that I have been back in the States for a
couple of months now. It has taken me a while to adjust to having electricity 24 hours a day and other things that we have here. I miss the Roma
children in Kosovo and the many friends that I made. It was very hard to leave them, but I was glad to get
back to America!
It took a while for me to catch up with things, but I think I am doing ok now. I
do not know what my next step is in life. I am doing that thing I hate the most: WAITING. I am staying in North Carolina until I know what the
Lord wants me to do next. I am living in a furnished apartment that is month to month and I have not unpacked anything yet. However I have to
live, so I prayed long and hard about what to do and for now I am working at a Christian Children's Home as a house parent. The home is supposed
to open up a new house for children who have been severely abused and I am supposed to help them get it started. The home is yet to open so I am
a house parent for teenage boys!!! I am not sure what is harder: serving in a third world country or working with teenage boys!!! My schedule is
7 days on and 7 days off, so I hope this will help me go to Alabama, Chicago, and other places to visit family and friends more often.
Thank you for all your support and please continue to pray for me as I seek the
Lord's guidance and direction for my next step. My cell number is 336-452-3313 and my home number: 336-818-0454. My address is 3270 Boone Trail
Rd. Apt. B, Millers Creek, NC 28651.
Thanks again for everything. Please drop me a note and let me know how you are
doing. When I am at work I do not have internet access, so be patient if I do not respond right away!
In His Service,
MARY
