Well guys it's off to West Chester, PA for me. I'm going to West Chester on a mission trip with the BCM. Then on next Friday I'll be flying from Pennsylvania to Ukraine. I'll be teaching English for a week in Ukraine. I can't wait! Another stamp for my passport. On the way home from Ukraine we'll be spending the night in Vienna, so we get to tour Vienna! I'm very excited!! God rocks!!!

Update on life in J'ville
I'm doing a lot better now. I've come to terms with the things I must do. Week after next I will be going to West Chester, PA on a mission trip for the week of spring break. After that I'll be flying from Philly to Washington to meet up with another group, then we'll fly to Ukraine. Somewhere I've never been. God has been using me everywhere. I wonder if I should consider being a full time missionary. Of course we are all call to be missionaries, God told us to make disciples as we are going.
I must say that since I've been back from Wales I've felt under constant attack. I've been hit from all sides. It's really weird, because I've never had such a hard time coming back to the US. I just can not get into the rhythm here. There's a flow to life and when you leave for three months and come back you have to try and reenter that flow. You probably have no idea what I'm talking about here. It's hard to explain unless you've been through it as well. The great thing is that through everything God has provided. He's given me a job as a semester missionary at my college. And has provided a way for me to go to Ukraine and teach English for a week.
I think the hardest thing I've had to deal with (other than my grandmother's illness) is how much everything changed while I was away. Everybody I knew before I left is different. I'm trying to figure out who these people are. Some of them were my closest friends others are just friends, but regardless of closeness, they have all changed. Some for the better and some for the worst. It's like they all said, "Stella's gone, let's go crazy." I know that wasn't the case it just feels that way. I don't think of myself as someone so important that this place can't run without me.
I would ask that you pray for my school, BCM, family, and me. I pray that God would bless your life as much as He has blessed me!
