"Every time I think of you, I give thanks to my God. Whenever I pray, I make my requests for all of you with joy, for you have been my partners in spreading the Good News about Christ.." (Phil. 1:3-5) I couldn't explain the way I feel about y'all any better than what Paul states in Philippians. I was struggling last time I posted and as I look back over the last few days, I see the way God has answered all those who are(and I know are continuing to) praying for me. Thank you so much!!
Teaching this week has been awesome! The students have been enjoying class and come back each day. It really makes me happy to see them so eager to learn English and already I'm getting to know some of them closer and build realtionships. In the morning, I only have two people, Ratko and Snezana, to come; however, I absolutely love working with them. As I teach them, they also work with me and teach me some Serbian. So I've made some progress this week and not afraid to use the words I know. It would be great for you lift both of them up in prayer this week. Ratko is at the crossroads of having a personal relationship with Jesus, but struggling with a few things. Snezana just started coming to the English Club for the first time this summer and I hope to build a freindship with her. I know it's already starting :) She's so sweet! The night class that I teach is the same as the morning and more people come to it. This week I've had around seven- oh and Ratko and Snezana come to both. They're so eager to learn. - It's been wonderful working with them too. It's totally different teaching adults, but just the week I've come to enjoy it. Thank-you God!! I finish class each day with so much joy! It's truly been an answer to prayer. ~ Vidimo se kasnije. (see you later)
For His Glory!!!

About Me

- Tori
- After many years of praying and wanting to serve our Lord overseas, He's given me my desire (Psalm 37:4). In the summer of 2007 I spent nine weeks in Čačak, Serbia. I saw God work in many people's lives and touch so many hearts. It was hard leaving good friends behind and saying good-bye, but God brought us together and if it's his plans for us to see each other again then I truly believe we will. Then this summer, God had provided for me to serve overseas again in Niger, West Africa. I leave June 1st and will be back in the States on July 31st. Please keep me and my team in your prayers as we reach out to the Zerma people.

hey
Tori, it sounds like you are having a good time. Maybe you need to teach us some english when you come home. Yes, we pray for you everyday and I know God has great things for you. We do miss you and are counting the days for your return. Your Mom keeps us updated when you call. She hasn't mentioned your finger lately, but I hope it is ok. Keep up the good work....
Hey Babe just cking the blog. I have had trouble getting on today. Maybe the doctor will give you some direction on your finger healing today.(By the time you get this) Your in our prayers. God is in control all the time.
He is using you with that creative ability He has given you to teach the Serbian's. Ratko and Snezana are especially in our prayers and the guy in the sports group with the Damean and Jacob. God is at work all around us. He is using us as we allow Him to. We have to be prepared each day as Satan tries to throw things in our path. Keep our eyes on Jesus.
It is exciting to hear how he is at work. May our Lord be glorified in everything you say and do.
I love you ,mama
