In Preparation

Hi Family and Friends,

I want to thank you for taking the time to keep in touch with me as I go to Tanzania again for the third time!! I had hoped to already be in Tanzania in language school at this point, but plans were changed early on. When I didn't have the money to attend language school, I had to change my plans and change them soon. Nonetheless, God has provided and I believe it is His will for me to go on July 21 and not July 1. His plans are fine with me :)

I am now preparing mentally and emotionally to return to Tanzania and I am sooo excited. I am anxious to see all those that embraced me and that I now refer to as my family. I am also excited to see what God is going to do this year through me, in me and around me. Thank you Lord!! I know He is going to do amazing things as my entire experience at Regent has been just that. I am nearing the end of a journey here and the beginning of another.

I actually did not come to Regent just to get an education. I actually came to deepen my relationship with the Lord. Well, He had other plans. Though my relationship has been strengthened, He wanted to prepare me for ministry and now He is sending me out to be used for His glory... I know this may sound rehearsed, but God I really mean it and I am so honored to be apart of His "Plan" though I have not been as patient as I could have been... Nonetheless, He is faithful when we are unfaithful.. Gotta love Him.

Keep me in your prayers as I will be traveling July 21 to Tanzania. I will not arrive until the 22nd, but I have three separate flights that I will take to get there. I will keep you posted and I truly look forward to hearing from you all and sharing this experience with you...

Sincerely,
April Nicole
