I'm settling in well here at the Stanely house in Paisley, Scotland. More people have arrived, with the remaining two coming this afternoon, both of whom are my roommates. Tonight we will officially get started so I can't really tell you much about the training, since we haven't even started yet....
I am all rested with no suffering of jet lag. The first night I slept for 12 hours, I didn't even know I could sleep that long... Yesterday I ventured into the town center of Paisley, making a mental note of every street I turned onto, since I had no map and didn't really know where I was going. Also remembering that here in the U.K. the cars have the right away, not the pedestrians, if you get hit, its your fault. Once again being confused by what direction the cars are going to be coming from when crossing the street, at least this time I'm not driving and having to figure out what side of the street I need to be on.
I am however going to post my first prayer request, One of the things that I have been concerned with the most is that I have food allergies. They are not super serious, but enough where I can be rather miserable for a little while. Last year while in Amsterdam God really protected me from a certain allergy and I had no reaction what so ever. So I am praying that God will do the same this time around, and also ask that you would pray for me in that way as well. I want to be able to be well and be fully used by God, with out having to be sick.
I want to thank all of you for your support both through prayer and financial means, everyone has been such an amazing blessing, there are no words to describe.

God's peace,
Tonya
