Harry Who?
I just have to write this...I just got back from reading the English version of Harry Potter in an English British Legion club (like a bar sorta but with a huge lounge) in England. It was wicked!

I'm here!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow! Can you believe it? I am sitting on my pull out bed in Kyle and Mindy's house in Wigston. Wicked!
So far I've made a mess at immigration, ate cottage pie and pasties, learned not to call trousers pants,made a baby stop crying, ate a Magnum bar, made real English tea, and have met some really lovely people. Pretty busy for the first couple days eh?
Can't wait to here from ya'll.
Love and Blessings,
Mary
Prayer Requests:
I move into my new home with Nancy on Sunday. Pray we have a great relationship.

It's a brand new day...
And I'm so excited!
I leave tomorrow bright and early! I have to be at the airport around 6am. Yuck! I guess I'll have to sleep on the plane. I have about four flights before I finally reach England. I will get there though.
I have had several people contact me from the church. I am excited to meet them. It's cool knowing that they are just as eager to meet me as I am to meet them.
So my next entry will be from Leicester. Can't wait!
Prayer Request:

The Final Countdown...
So my final full week in America approaches...
Being here in Florida certainly has had its ups and downs. God has placed some amazing people in my life. I have met missionaries from Macedonia, Indonesia, Russia, and all over Africa. I've also seen some cool missions strategies such as AIDs education and ECHO's agricultural ministries. God is really blessing many of the NMSI affliates.
I got swim in the ocean for the first time too! It was kinda scary!!! The water was dark and murky and the signs that said beware of sharks and sting rays didn't help my fears. But I had fun at the beach all the same though.
I can't help but countdown the days until England. I leave on the 16th and get to England on the morning of the 17th. I will definately have a case of the jet lag (;
Prayer Requests:
My budget increased - pray that my donors donate!
Still finishing school - its stressful
