Don't get me wrong, I am loving being home with my family, but I often find my heart is already in Peru instead fully present to the moment. This past month seems like the longest month ever. I have patiently been waiting for it to pass knowing that in June I go back to Brooklyn to meet many new friends and go through orientation. Aside from that, I've noticed how much I am looking forward to a simple life. Where money is not an issue, neither are clothes, cars, or other material things. I will be free of those ties and so will those I am serving. The stresses associated with them will be gone and I imagine my stress will come from much more meaningful places. like the sick boy who lives down the street and can't make it mass or the elderly lady that has been cast out by her family. Needless to say, as the days slowly go by, I can't help but long to be in Peru already or at least near Heart's Home.
Please continue praying for sponsorships to come in and for all of the former, current, and future missionaries to be at peace and follow the Will of God.
Blessings.
