Why Am I Blogging?

Are you wondering that too?

I'll admit, this is kind of weird for me. I'm not a blogging person. Don't get me wrong, I love a good blog--which is probably why I've never wanted to start up my own!


But back to the question - why am I blogging? Long story short, I got a call 12 days ago (not that I'm counting...) that I was accepted to participate in a missions internship I applied for a few weeks ago. It wasn't my choice to go to Ivory Coast. I'd like to believe it was God's choice through the CMF workers. I requested Ethiopia, Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, Maasai, Nairobi, and Thailand. But I'm going to Ivory Coast. Perhaps someday I'll write about why this is kind of a really, really, really cool deal.

This is my Ivory Coast blog. I'm writing for my mom, sister, and roommates (who probably are the only ones who will actually read this!) but feel free to read/comment/whatever even if you don't fit into any of those categories!

  1. Well I'm a blog junkie. It's usually all I read. :/ So I will follow your musings even though I'm not your sister or roomate or your mom. :) Can't wait to see what God has in store for you. Although I would have been giddy had you been in Ethiopia. :)

    1. Thanks for the comment, Amber! I thought of you back when I applied. I actually had chosen Ethiopia as my first pick :)

  2. Kelsey, I am so very happy for you! I'm thrilled that you have begun your blog so that I and ALL ;-) your readers will be able to share in your adventures. And the Ivory Coast!! You will be able to use your French - c'est magnifique, bien sûr!! I will begin praying this day as God begins to prepare your heart for this path He is taking you along.
