Homesick

With less than two weeks left, our team has naturally hit the "homesick wall." While we still aren't ready to leave, we definitely miss family, friends, and strangely enough: SCHOOL. However, we know that as humans we never fully feel at home on earth. There is no place in this world that is completely our "home."  Philippians 3:20, "But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ." We aren't supposed to be completely comfortable in any culture, because we were not made for any culture found on the Earth. We aren't supposed to feel at home on earth, because we were created to fully be in the presence of the Lord.

Please pray:
•that the people of West Africa would hear and understand the truth with their hearts so that one day, they can experience their true home.
•that our team would be faithful with the time the Lord has given us here and we would persevere to the end.

Your fellow sojourner,
Meredith
