So this past weekend I had the chance to go to a youth retreat, with my church and abunch of other mennonite churchs from around Paraguay. It was alot of fun. Every morning I woke up and found a new muscle that had not been used in awhile, aching from the games played the day before. There were 2 sessions a day, both of which I got basically nothing out of, but it gave me alot of time to think about some things going on in my life right now.
Lately I have been asked quite afew times if I know what I might like to do when I get home. I don´t know if people are asking because it is now 2010 and I will be home in 6 months or what, but honestly no I have no idea what I want to do when I get home. Some days it frusterates me not knowing, because I have always been a person who knew what I was doing the next year - the answere was always school. Now I have a world of opportunities, but don´t know where to start. I know God will reveal his plans for me when he is ready, and until then I try to stay patient (very hard for me to do sometimes). I ask for your prayers during this time!!
Other than that I am really enjoying my time here in Paraguay. I have made many wonderful friends and relationships with those who live around me, and within my church family.

Hey Ruth, I believe I share alot of what you have just wrote here. I was also at a Retreat earlier this month with my other SALTer's here in SA and Lesotho at Shelly Beach, which is along the coast. There were about 30 of us which included Anna, Tim, Kyle, Connie and Gabi! It has been fun getting to know them and I see them from time to time.
