Overcoming Technical Difficulties :)

If you have been hearing from me the last four months, you can skip this post, as it is mostly a recap. A new post will be coming soon!

If it's been a while since you've heard from me, that was due to technical difficulties with the automatic notifications from my blog. Sorry about that, but after 2 hours of customer service chats, I think I was finally able to resolve it!

I have posted 3 times since the last email was sent out to everyone, so you can go back to read those or just read the quick recap here:

Travel Update (Dec 18) I was able to make it back to the U.S. for Christmas after a particularly long and anxiety-inducing trip from my house to the airport in Ecuador. I spent a wonderful Christmas in West MI and was incredibly blessed by the people I spent my time with.

Living with a Countdown (Feb 11) I have officially decided that this school year (24-25) will be my last one in Ecuador and I will be moving back to West MI in July. There is a wide range of emotions that this brings up for me. You can read more about that in that post, and there is more info to come on what that will look like!

Our Daily Breath (Mar 14) After a particularly stressful stretch of weeks, I found my asthma flaring up again, forcing me into humility as I allowed my body to recover. I was reminded of my need to be with the Father, not just work for Him. He is teaching me (once again) the importance of living in dependence on Him instead of the self-sufficiency I often default to. I am feeling much better now but still not 100%.

Most of all, I want to thank you for your support and kindness. Once I realized that over half of you weren't able to receive these updates, I felt desperate to get that resolved as quickly as possible because of how much I desire your prayers and am encouraged by your words in response to my posts.

Like I said at the beginning, I plan on sending out another regular post soon!

Thanks again for your prayers! I look forward to 'reconnecting' with you!

Bendiciones!
