2009. a year of transitions

Yes I know its March, and yes I realize that this is my first posting for the year. However I'm over it and that is that. 2009 started as a friend put it, "No Regrets" but quickly turned into a year of transitions.
First - I got accepted to USC's masters in PA (physician assistant) program. I am very excited and it still has not fully sunk in. I will be starting Aug 18th and have a ton of stuff to do between now and then; finding housing, filling out forms, ect. The whole process can be a blog in itself - me learning patience, relying on God and realizing the magnitude of the faithfulness of God.
Second I will be going to Bangladesh for six weeks in June with a group from APU. We will be working at a Mother Teresa House for the Destitute and Dying. We will be providing end of life care, wound care, and just loving on people. I am very excited and am expecting to be broken in a completly new way. We will also be working with and building relationships with a organization that sells local crafts free-trade.
Third, I have moved back home and am living in the desert with my family. It has been such a blessing to live with my family again and not having any rent has been a blessing too.

So far 2009 has taught me to be flexable, to take the days as they come and to live with what I call open hands.

I am hoping to be writing more on here and also check out my "small group" blog at tangenttaco.blogspot.com you can also click on it on the right side of the screen.
