I'm Going To Russia


Happy New Year! 2007. Do you remember when you were a kid? I was reminising the other day and I recall thinking how many years it would be till the turn of the century. As a child it seemed that the years went by like a slow stream. As an adult am remembering the wisdom told to me by my papa who said, "son time will fly." How true is that? Very! Only moments ago I was a child sitting on the wood pile in Dennis, MS, now I sit here in my office serving in a job I love. That young boy sitting on the wood pile often could not imagaine getting out of the state, but now I am part of a team of 11 going to Ufa, Russia. It will be one of the most exciting trips of my life. We are in training now to prepare us to fulfil our roles as teachers. We will be teaching English as a second language to Russian nationals it is going to be awesome. Please pray for me and my team as we continue our preparations.
