I made it to Serbia! Getting here was a little difficult. I was delayed in Birmingham before I ever left. So my tickets were rearranged. I wasn't able to meet my team in Munich. In the Frankfurt airport I had trouble getting my boarding pass, but God sent "an angel" my way. A nice German man helped me after his shift was over to go through security and get my ticket quicker. I was able to get my boarding pass and made the flight on time. However, after we boarded the plane we sat there for an hour and a half because too many planes needed to depart. I made it to Belgrade about 6:00 and met up with my team.
Sunday we ate lunch at the Sharpe's, went grocery shopping, and watched a football game. The people here are very friendly and willing to help. I've enjoyed my time here so far and can't wait to see the way God will work in the lives of the Serbs.
Volim Te (Love you),
Tori

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 Girl:
Praise God for always sending "angels" just when we need them. May God give you an extra measure of peace and assurance. Just remember, many people love you and are praying for you. Love, Aunt Pansy

Tori,
It is so wonderful to hear that you are in Serbia safely! I have been praying for you constantly since you left. I can see that God has already answered one of my prayers! I love how you put that God sent "an angel" your way in the airport. I know that is a direct answer to my prayers!! As I prayed for your journey through the foreign airports, I asked that God would help guide you through, and if you had any problems, that he would send someone, an angel even, to help you. Isn't our God amazing?! He knew what you'd need even before you went, and I am confident that He put that prayer in my heart for you.
I love you, and I can't wait to hear more about your time in Serbia! I know God has a purpose and a plan for you. If you get homesick, just know that through giving up your friends and family for a summer, you are gaining countless brothers and sisters in Christ.

Praising God that you made it to your new home away from home. As your friend stated, I can hear your sweet voice saying these precious words everytime you post something. You are a GIFT from GOD Tori and I can't WAIT to see what God brings to fruition from all the seeds that have been planted with your trip! To God be the Glory, great things HE HAS ALREADY DONE AND I KNOW HE WILL DO!!! I miss seeing you beautiful...until later...
Loving you always,
