Leaving Borger

Hello,

I can’t believe the time has come for me to pack and leave for Africa. It seems like just yesterday I was being interviewed for a spot to join 25 other Harding students in this adventure, But since then I have taken a Nursing class, spent two weeks at HUT, and read several books on African literature.

If you are wondering what HUT is it’s a camp for medical missions and healthcare missions minors, Bible majors, and future HIZ student to attend to learn more about what life would be like on a mission field. If I had to summarize the experience I had there in one phrase it would be, “What did I just do?!” lol. Well..I lived in a bamboo house without electricity or running water, I worked all day along with my family (which were 6 other Harding students) in order to get paid that evening & buy a small meal to cook over a fire, I helped kill a rabbit to eat, I learned how to garden, I learned about first aid, I learned more about missionary work, & most of all I lived like MOST people in this world live EVERYDAY.

This Friday Ill be back at HUT learning more until August 23^rd!! Then we will be flying to Africa J I am looking forward to the life changing experience God has blessed me with. I hope by writing this blog you will learn from my experiences there and grow along with me!

Keep Us In Your Prayers,

Cynda
