I barely mentioned it at the end of my email last week. But I hit my ONE YEAR mark June 1st!! I ate Gelato, burned a tie and cried a little. I don't know where the time has gone, but in the past year, I've managed to:
• Eat Gelato
• Play sand volleyball so. many. times.
• Meet some of my very best friends and my twin (Bacher)
• Serve in 2 cities
• Have 4 companions
• Learn some Italian (lol still not perfect at it)
• Choke on lemonade and pizza and just about everything because of laughing too hard
• Get rejected 100000x
• Serve people 24/7
• Laugh until I cry
• Miss 1000 buses and trains
• Flip over my handle bars twice
• Fall down too many times
• Eat way too much food
• Get rejected
• Learn phrases in different dialects
• Eat Gelato some more
• Meet tons of people and their dogs
• Be humbled over and over and over
• See miracles big and small everyday
• Get pooped on by many a birds
• Fall asleep everywhere
• Meet people from almost every nation on the earth
• Embarrass myself (not new, it's been happening since 1997)
• Lose myself in the work
It's never easy being a missionary, but it's so worth it in the end.
Thanks for the prayers and support.
Love y'all,
Sorella Meager

whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it
