Hello Dear Friends and Family... I come home in less than 2 weeks 6 months goes by so fast...slow when you are in it but then looking back when its over it goes by so quickly. The Lord has really blessed my time here and I am looking forward to coming home but it is very bittersweet for me. Everyone here is like family to me so it will be very hard to say goodbye to all my new brothers, sisters, aunts and uncles. Please pray for grace for me in this I know i am going to cry but also know this is Gods timing and that gives me peace. I had a dream a few days ago and in the dream I was tied down with ropes and in a dark room and I felt like I just had this heaviness upon me like a heavy burden i was carrying and then someone came into the room and unlocked the door and cut of the ropes and brought me out into the sun. It just reminded me of how I was once a slave to sin I was a sinner and on the road to hell separated from God and Jesus Christ through the shedding of his blood on the cross has made me free! I think it was the His way of reminding me and making me once again thankful and grateful for my salvation because once you have been a slave to anything and then you have become free after a while you forget what it was like to be a slave in the first place and it can feel as if you have always been free. Christ has been reminding me of that and its really been making me think...I have been set free I am unbound and liberated through Christ. John 8:34-36
Please pray we are having a women's meeting in a tribal area this saturday Monika will be speaking

and the kids at the childrens home are having Exams this week (which is a big deal in India) and they are a little stressed out.
Can’t wait to see all of you and hear about what has been going on in your lives these 6 months. Thank you guys so much for your prayers and your support it means a lot to me and makes a big difference.
Hi Abbey...Love keeping up through your blogs....and can't wait for you to come home and see you again. I believe during this 6 months you have learned and grown in ways you never thought imaginable when you left.You won't be the same Abbey that left Vermont, and its all good. God has shown you the way, his way! I imagine parting with your new family, friends and the children that look up to you so much is going to be hard. They have all played a special part in your growth process...so don't say goodbye, say you will see them again in the future, as we all meet again and become one eventually.Prayers are said for you every night and will continue. You should be very, very proud at what you have accomplished!I hope you have time to share more of what you learned with me when you get back.
