I wrote this post about six months ago, but decided not to put it up on my blog.  The audience was really for missionaries, and that’s not usually who I am writing for.  So instead, I submitted it to A Life Overseas….and they took it!  It’s up on their blog today.  Check it out here….especially if you are a missionary.

“I needed people, someone who could walk me step by step through my life.  I was thrust onto a new team, and into a larger missionary community.  I knew nothing about these people, and yet I needed them desperately.  How should I navigate those relationships?”
