New Images
Yesterday, I received an email from Fr. Remus with the final blueprints and the 3-dimensional images of the orphanage. I cannot even tell you how excited I am! Now that I can see it, it's becoming so real!

Happy New Year
Oh my goodness. I apologize for leaving everyone in the dark for so long about what was going on in the mission world. First, I hope your Christmas was filled with joy and the hope of the newborn Christ and I hope that your new year is the happiest year yet.
I spent a week in Rome on retreat with the Missionaries of Charity at the end of October. It was amazing and so needed. The MCs were so wonderful to me and made me feel so welcome. The week was nothing short of beautiful. I received so much from the Lord in the quiet of the chapel. It was such a blessing.
I returned home to Cincinnati the second week of November and it's been a tough adjustment back to life here in the USA. Everything is like information overload all the time. I can't stand to watch television for very long. It's even overwhelming to drive down the street and see the 8 million billboards, stores, and restaurants. Suburban Cincinnati is very different from Turt (as I'm sure you can imagine).
I am SO excited that this is finally a reality. Construction has finally started on the orphanage. Just before Thanksgiving, the foundation was finished. This is where it will stay until construction can start again in the spring. I hope these photos bring you as much joy as they bring me.
