Greetings!!Well, I have been back in the States a month now. It has been a whirlwind of travel tosee family members, celebrate the holidays and settle back into life in the States. It hasalso been relaxing and rejuvenating when I’ve actually been home. I’ve spent time withfamily, friends and, of course, my dog, while working as a full-time substitute teacher atthe Medicine Lake School. They’ve kept me working every day since the beginning ofthe New Year. I’m currently long-term substitute for the music teacher but will havemany different teaching experiences. I’m adjusting back to the frigid temperatures ofnortheastern Montana. There are days that I wish I was back in Shell where it is much,much warmer. My friends down there make sure to remind me with pictures andtexts.
What is the next step for me? Many people have asked since my return was soonerthan I planned. After much thought and prayer I have decided to apply to teach at theNate Saint Memorial School back in Shell, Ecuador.
The Nate Saint Memorial School began as a dream of Mission Aviation Fellowship pilot,Nate Saint. He was one of five missionaries martyred by the Waorani Indians on Janu-ary 8, 1956. Before his death, Nate expressed how important it was for children to at-tend school close to home and be with their parents during their younger years. I alsobelieve that it is very important for missionary children to get a quality education whilethey are living outside of the United States. I hope that I can be one of the great teach-ers providing that opportunity at the Nate Saint Memorial School.
I will have my own classroom and will teach in English. This job will start in August andrun until June of 2016. It will be very different from teaching at Casa de Fe but I am ex-cited for this new opportunity and journey. This is a volunteer position just like my lastone. I have a small amount left in my CornerStone mission fund, but I will need to raiseabout $10,000 more to cover my year at the school plus travel expenses.
My heart is still in Ecuador and I feel that I am being called back to serve. My ministrywon’t end with Casa de Fe. I’ve definitely learned in the past six months that it reallyisn’t my plan, it is His. If you can help me fulfill His plan for me, while glorifying Him, Iwould greatly appreciate it.
