Description

In August of this year (09) I will start the next phase of my life. I will get on a plane with everything (well almost) I need to survive for the next 9 months on an island the size of San Fransisco or Disney Land at its peak(about 47 square miles). I'm going to dedicate a school year of my life to serving. My target audience? A group of 2nd graders! That's right, I'm going to be teaching 2nd grade on Yap, an island in Micronesia. From now on I will be reflecting on my pre-trip excitement and jitters, my during trip experiences, woes, and wonders, and my after trip longings and impressions. Close your eyes (ok maybe not), allow yourself to be transport almost 8,000 miles away, and enjoy!
