I brought people to Jesus!

Africa has been quite the adventure. It's been one of the most challenging experiences of my life. I have doubted my ability and stability for the last few months, but God has been sure to show me my inner strength.There has been times were  debated going home, but here I am with only three short weeks left.

Luke 13:20-21 "To what shall i liken the Kingdom of God? it is like leaven which a women took and hid in three measures of meal till it was all leavened.
