Thankful

Dear Church Family,

This is a special posting just for you. Only four short weeks until we are reunited! The anticipation is bittersweet. These past three months I have truly come to love Malawi as my second home. Of course there have been - and will be - many times my frustration gets the best of me and I can't help but miss home, still there is something about the people here, the way of life, the weather, etc that grabs hold of your heart and doesn't let go easily.

However, the real reason I am writing this special post is because I received my monthly support update from the States this weekend! I wanted to say a big THANK YOU to all of you who participated in the Love Offering taken for me a couple Sunday's ago. Because of it, I was able to reach just over half of my monthly support goal!! Your willingness to give means more than you know. I wouldn't be here if it weren't for all of you - my monthly supporters especially!

I look forward to seeing all of you soon!

With love,
Amanda
