Mission Training International




Well here I am in Colorado attending a 3 week training on missions. I wasn't sure what to expect after being on the field for 3 years. All I can say is I am glad I came. We are talking about how to better communicate with the nationals of the countries we are going to. We are also talking about personal issues and how to deal with stress and how to stay healthy emotionally and physically. I found out I am a shark, that won't mean much to any of you unless you have taken this training, but I really felt I fit into that group and by the way we are the group easiest to be misunderstood. I guess I will spend the rest of my life apologizing for my direct way of saying things. I will try to be more sensitive, but it is a process.

Last Saturday I went with two other ladies to Pikes Peak. Wow it was awesome. To think God created such a beautiful place. Then we went to seven falls. It was great to get away after a tough week of emotional stuff. This Sunday there is a group of us going to the Rockies Baseball game after Church. It is faith day at the park and we got a great ticket rate. $10.00 per person. Woo Hoo.

I have 2 more weeks here then on to NY to visit Anne-Marie and back to Madagascar on Sept 6Th.

I would like to pray for each of you. So, if you have any specific prayer requests please send them to me at sunlady2@aol.com.

God has been really good with providing supporters for this time back in the states. I am however still short about $300 of the one time expense for this trip. If you could help I would be very grateful. If you want to make a donation you can send it directly to World Venture by clicking on the link to the right. Then you look up my name and follow the instructions. The office has recently helped me create a web page so you can check that out at the same site.
