it felt sort of like a cross between summer camp and college dorm life all over again. these talented young interns (engineers, architects, and one graphic designer) have all committed one semester to work in offices all over the world for eMi. not only are they working for free, but they all either raise support or pay for the internship themselves! it has been a huge blessing to get to know them...learn all there unique stories and where they came from, and i look forward to seeing how God uses them for His glory.
The theme for the week has been God's Workmanship. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2:10. we are each God's unique creation and we've spent the better part of the time exploring our own personality traits, strengths, and spiritual gifts to better understand His purpose for our lives.
i leave tomorrow for Uganda with 5 of the interns in tow. there are so many unknowns right now...from the projects i will work on, to the new culture i will experience, to what i will eat. and i feel like all those unknowns are in a big box, wrapped up with a giant bow on top. a gift from God just waiting for me to unwrap and dig in!!
