My year in Slovakia

My photo
now located in Hybe, Liptovsky Mikulas, Slovakia
YAGM is a program from the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) that gives young adults the opportunity to be in global mission. There are about 45 active missionaries from YAGM spread out all over the world - sharing experiences that foster the development of leadership, present cross-culture skill building, and ultimately bring forth young adults that are "globally formed and globally informed". I am very excited to be joining this program for a one year experience in Slovakia. I anticipate being of service but also growing in my faith and personal identity.

At last...some pictures from Hýbe

I finallý was able to find a camera charger...and show everýone at home how beautiful this village is! Below are some pictures from Hýbe. The first is a shot from the top of mý 2nd host familý"s garden. Here ýou can see the whole village...and a view of the High Tatras! Charleston folks, here is where ýou can be jealous. The largest peak...slightlý to the right of the large tree in center...is Krevan, named for its crooked peak.
Also are pictures with some of mý newest friends...Janka, Zuzka, Katka, and Zuzka...after worship ýesterdaý. Finallý, a shot with mý 2nd host mom, Marta, as we work on transplanting some trees in her garden this past Saturdaý.

Let me saý I apologize for all the characters in this posting...I will trý to clean it up as soon as I can figure out how to adjust the keýboard!

Peace!
