Pre-trip Ponderings...

Even though I know it is still in America, New Orleans feels and seems so foreign to me, at least the world that we are going. The heat and the long days isn't what is the most daunting part. No, the scariest thing is going to be the barriers. Barriers both racial and financial, spiritual and physical. My prayer is to be as versatile and able to relate to others as Jesus. Will a girl, grown up in a Christian family with two parents on a modest middle class income in the wholesome Midwest, be able to understand life in poverty. I pray for love, not pity and for strength and wisdom to know how to best give of myself. Here's to an adventure! ~ Joanna
