Today, I'm thankful for the call that God placed on my heart a few years ago to do mission work in Ukraine. Some may be tired of hearing about my time in Ukraine, but it's hard to forget about a life changing event. Never in my life have I had to rely more on God and trust His will as I did in Ukraine. Never in my life have I lived so far away from all of my friends and family except when I lived in Ukraine. And never in my life have I had to learn a completely new language in order to make it to church or my apartment, get groceries or eat at McDonald's until I lived in Ukraine.
I'm so glad I trusted God to lead me and take care of me back when he placed mission work on my heart. As tough as it was to be so far away from friends and family in Ukraine, I am glad I went. It was a great experience where some lifelong friendships were made. The girls I worked with at Shepherd's Home have a special place in my heart. They were all beautiful ladies and I'm thankful I got to play a small role for a season of their lives.
