Update from Michelle

Hey Everybody,
It has been so good to hear the updates from all of you guys and know what's going on in your lives. I'll add mine to the list as well, here.

My life has definitely changed a lot in the last several years. I moved to Ft Lauderdale, FL in 2003 and was part of planting a church there called The Harbour for several years. After being in staff there doing short term missions, the Lord opened a door for me to work overseas all the time. For the last year and a half I have been working as a full time missionary with Book of Hope International (bookofhope.net). My job involves a lot of different things, but basically we go into schools doing presentations on life skills and give out a book for the kids that is the four gospels combined so the children will understand it.

I spent almost all of last year in Africa and this year I have been in South Africa, Swaziland, Botswana, Peru and I am writing right now from El Salvador. Sarah Graves actually worked with some of my friends in Swaziland just a few weeks ago. My life is full of crazy adventures, ridiculous stories and amazing opportunities to see things and go places most people never have the opportunity to. I have been truly blessed all along the way with friends who are as close as family and I wouldn't trade a moment of it. No husband or kids yet, but I'll attach a couple of pictures so you can see some of the little faces that are a part of my everyday life.
