Back to the blogging world

Wow, my last entry was in May? That is just outrageous. Here I am more than 4 months after the last post, and I can't even begin to sum up what has happened in between. Long story short, my summer looked like this:

Cebu, Philippines: June 19th - July 4th
Sydney, Australia (wyd2008.org): July 12th - 21st
Comayagua, Honduras (missioners.org): July 23rd - August 19th

I heard someone say the other day "Hindsight is always 20/20" and I think that's a very fitting statement for my summer. When people ask me how my summer was, I tell them it was the summer of summers. And it definitely was, for many reasons. Though the Philippines and World Youth Day were definitely amazing parts of my summer, the most significant and biggest blessing was my month long stay as a missioner with the Missioners of Christ, the same organization I missioned with earlier this year.

God has moved in my heart, healed wounds that have gone neglected, cleaned up messes that I swept under the rug, and all in all helped me grow, grow, and grow. My visit to the motherland was long overdue, celebrating World Youth Day with Holy Mother Church, and going on mission with mama Mary always at my side...a summer of motherhood. Wow...okay. Just uncovering that mother thing as I write that....okay, talk about Hindsight being 20/20, because I'm literally getting revelations right now that are putting this even more into perspective than it was when I sat down to write this.

I need time to process these new insights....I shall be back soon.

PAX.

Yes, the mission was very possible. So possible, it chose to lose it's life to save it!
