PRAISE!!!!!!!

My passport arrived with my Burundian Visa in it today!!!!!! My mom popped her head into my room this morning and informed me that there was a FedEx truck parked out in front of the house. My heart started pounding, I flew down the stairs, and opened the front door long before the friendly FedEx man could even knock on the door! He handed me the envelope and I hugged it like a long lost friend. =) Everything is truly, continuing to fall into place. Praise the Lord - He IS GOOD! Soli Deo Gloria

I am leaving for Burundi on Sunday, June 20th and will return August 21st. I am very excited to truly get to experience missionary life with assembly missionaries and also be involved/volunteer at the Arms of Love Mission and The Rainbow Centre Ministries that the Johnson's are involved with. The paragraph below give a bit of info about the Rainbow Centre... 

THE RAINBOW CENTRE

A God-inspired community family-strengthening centre with a focus on abandoned, HIV+ babies, age newborn to 2 years old, this 1 1/2 acre piece of property, called the Rainbow Centre, located in the heart of Bujumbura, the capitol city of Burundi, Central Africa, has been a haven to hundreds of babies and children since it opened in April 2002. We are quietly loving and strengthening sick and malnourished babies, many of whom are abandoned or orphaned because of AIDS.
