France it is!

December 18, 2007 by

A fancy way of saying, <br />"French school"” width=”300″ /></a><!--EndImportPhoto--></p>
<p>When leadership in Senegal told me that I would need to go to France or Quebec to study French, I began praying about where to go. Through some months of prayer I felt the Lord would have me go to a small missionary language school in Albertville, France.  Recently, I have gone through a long process of gathering different documents and having them translated into French, then going for an interview to the French consulate in Atlanta to request a visa.  Well, after a few months of this and a few more of waiting, I finally have my visa in hand!  Praise the Lord!  I have learned a little French online already and tried to learn a bit about French culture so that I will be prepared.  My heart longs to go straight to Africa but, I am willing to take this "side trip" if that is what I need to do.  What an adventure!  Please pray for me– that my brain would successfully process all the information it will get in French language and culture immersion.  Pray that I will be faithful with my time.  Pray that I will get to know and minister to French people.  Pray that I am bold to practice all I can so that I can learn as much as possible.  I plan to leave January 2, 2008 and return home for a short visit before heading to Senegal.  This time of National language study will be my first year of full-time service with New Tribes Mission.</p>
