Another Summer of Transition

It's yet another summer in Ocala, which is as exciting as you would imagine it. The only thing that gets me through is watching re-runs of Will and Grace and my loveliest of friends that I miss so much when I'm away. My summer started off with a bang...I came home from Salerno and straight into my family reunion, which is a classier/older version of a southern frat party. Then three days later I went to Korea for Crusade's world missions conference/my team leader training. It was incredible and exhausting all at the same time. I had the pleasure of seeing a peak of what Revelation 7 will be like. I'll never forget that moment. The rest of July consisted of hanging out with my lovelies and raising support. And August is flying by. I was able to go to New York and see Jeremy and Steffany, which I don't see enough. And I'm just coming off a trip to Colorado where we had our STINT briefing. It was very similar to last year except for the terrifying feelings of doing ministry and moving to a foreign country that thankfully I didn't have this year.

All these components strung together equal the summer of transition. I've finished a year in Italy and now I'm back in the US, but I'm going back to Italy. So...do I hold onto Italy or do I invest in America? Sometimes I feel very torn on which way I should be going, but most of the time I feel like I'm just waiting for the next thing. Which is true. I'm waiting for two things: all my support to come in and to get back to Italy where there is purpose to my day. It's strange how that happened. I never thought Italy would feel normal to me, but it does. (Something about blogging makes me a little emo...sorry about that)

I'm trying to think of what else is new/on my mind...whatever I've got nothing. No reason to keep going just for the sake of a longer post.
