Tonight is my last night in Mmabatho, South Africa. It has been such a wonderful experience, it's hard to leave. I have met so many new people just from working in the university...it's sad to say goodbye. I have a feeling though I will be back. Whether or not paths cross again will be up to God, but I think it will be fun if they do. I have learned so much from being here. What I learned is on other posts, but some things that I have learned I can't even tell you yet because I am not quite sure. I do know that I am not the same person as I was on Sept 15th when I started my journey.
I am happy to go home though. I get to tell you all things in person rather than you reading it or emailing it to my parents. I did learn that I really need to study the Bible more. Some of the Baptists here know it inside and out, while I could just tell you the most famous Bible stories and not in any detail either...it's actually quite sad. I do know some verses though, but these people quoted things like crazy. I also have to keep myself more up to date on politics and world events. It's sad how much I don't know.
The Ulrich's have been like family to me this past month. It's like I have two younger brothers and another younger sister. Micah (AKA "Squishy"...refer to Becca's blog) hides my pocketbook all the time...like now for instance...he stuck it somewhere and ran off to go play football...so now i have to go track it down...boys...It has been fun though..I will miss them all...Hopefully I can come back before they leave, who knows...I hope so.
Well tomorrow at 8am i will start my journey home and will be there at 11:08pm (that's what my ticket says) Friday night! I hate layovers...11 hrs in Jo-berg tomorrow...yuck
See you soon!

Veronica--
Know that you are always welcome to return and stay here. I know that the LORD has done great things in and through you in your time away and He will continue to reveal those to you.

HI VERONICA-
We miss you so much already. It is just not the same here without you. I know that GOD has revealed a lot to you during your travels and I can't wait to see where HE leads you next![I hope it is back here to Mmabatho:)]
Miss you
Rebecca
Glad to have you back. I can't wait to hear some of your stories and what you learned in person.
Ee batho Veronica!! We need more posts. You need to keep us updated since we are all the way across the ocean. :) Everyone here misses you so much and talks about you all the time. And we can't wait until you come back again.
