Boojeee: missing (8/6/07)

My Dearest Villagers,
It's Sunday and many of you are sleeping...:) I know this evening you'll make your way to the quaint decorated room of worship and fellowship. Some of you will drag your feet while others will go with excitement...but all will end up having a great evening...at least I hope!!!
Things in Michigan have settled down and we are nestled into our new home. We went to a dinner party at David's aunt and uncle's house last night. They hosted a misisonary family from China....they've been there awhile. There were 2 other couples our age, and then a young woman who recently got engaged. He spoke to us about missions work, following our hearts, and loving the Lord. Each of us are interested in different aspects of missions...but all want to serve Jesus. David described my dream of an orphanage. I love it when he shares my dreams for me because it makes me realize he understands me and knows my heart's desire.
I miss you all so much. I miss Sunday evenings and all the evenings in between that we spent with you. I think the pain of being gone finally hit last night as I wept most of the night and this morning. I thought because I have enjoyed being in Michigan so much the pain of being gone might sweep past me and I would get out of being sad! What was I thinking?!?!?!? Reality bites.
I have never missed anything as much as I miss Tucson...especially when where I am really isn't that bad.
So as you walk into that special holy space tonight know that I am praying for you in Tucson. Know that I am weeping for you and long for you. I can't imagine how Paul felt! Know that the Village is an amazing church and doing amazing things and I am praying that God really use you all to reach the broken in Tucson.
I LOVE AND MISS YOU!!!!!
