As I travel to the various villages, we usually have a driver that takes us. They are excellent drivers and very capable but they drive a BIT faster than I do amd swerve in and out quite a bit. I quickly learned how to say Sitaki kufa which means I don't want to die. It is only a joke, I feel completely safe with them. It is me that is really the problem. After a long trip back from one of the villages and saying Sitaki kufa quite a bit to give the driver a hard time, I was dropped off at Imara to get my own car. I was very tired and that is never good when driving on the "other" side of the road. I spaced out and missed my turn, so I had to turn around. I pulled off onto a side street. I just wasn't thinking.... So when I turned right..... I turned right heading right onto a truck coming right at us. We both swerved and lived, but the project manager in the car with me said, Sitaki Kufa! Oh the irony. I turned right the wrong way!
On another note, Thank you all so much for your prayers. I cannot tell you how HUGE of a difference they have made. I will elaborate more but I need to head out the door. I am running late.

Meagan!! I am SO happy that you are over there! (this really doesn't have to do with the blog, but oh well :)) We had the Perimeter 30-yr celebration tonight. It was really cool and I loved it, but I missed TZ. HollyAnne says she will someday turn Perimeter into a charismatic church :). I just told her to go to TZ. So, we've decided to be room-mates over there when we graduate.
I am SO glad that you are over there so that I can get the specifics on what to pray for.
God bless!! And I luv ya!
April
