That is one of the most common questions I hear when I answer people's question to me of where I am planning to go next. Yes, I have a new dream..this time to go on a companion mission trip to Namibia (which for those of you who join in asking that question- it is on the south western part of the African Continent.) The ELCA NJ Synod is putting together a trip to visit some churches in Namibia in June 2008 and I am hoping to join them. I have not been to this part of Africa before and hope to learn more about it and the people that live there- firsthand. and Botswana is right next door- I wonder if I can do a side trip and try to find Prescious Ramotswe of the First Ladies Detective Agency? And can I find someone to drink bush tea with in the afternoon as we sit and quietly solve all the problems in the world? Yes, these are the things I contemplate late into the evening hours.
I ask that any of my friends who read this and are willing to pray that God will bless this mission and that He will lead me and the pastor leading this trip to discern if this is my next call. Thanks
