Written on the plane coming home to Congo

Things we’re looking forward to going back to Congo:
Our friends, colleagues and church family
The gratifying work
The view from our balcony
Fresh fruits, tasty bananas, avocados
The nice weather

We’ll miss the parks, the consistent electricity, the ease of transport, the access to unlimited internet, and our French teacher.

But God has been answering prayers for help during the transition. (Thank you to our praying friends!) The day of departure, I woke up very cheerful, not stressed, and as soon as we were in line at the airport for our flight to Kigali with many Africans, I was feeling so excited to be returning to Africa. I’m so thankful to know where we’re going and what we’re getting into, it makes the transition a lot easier because there’s no reason to be scared about the unknown.
