Orientation

Africa Inland Missions US headquarters in Pearl River, NY. Beautiful place.

Just made it to New York for my orientation. The weather here hasn't been very good the last couple of days either. I am very glad that I took the train in instead of flying since we know how successful that was the last time I encountered weather. The train was also a lot less expensive and I got to see more of the east coast too...a triple plus!

The two packages of things my friend mailed from Milwaukee just arrived. I am SO thankful. Now I just have to combine everything and hope that I am still under the airlines weight limit.

Orientation starts tonight with the bulk of it being tomorrow and the first part of Wednesday. AIM has a very nice, homey facility in a neighborhood outside of New York City. The upstairs is dorm/hotel style rooms, the middle level the dinining room, a library and some nooks and crannys for reading and just having some quite time and the bottom level all of the conference rooms and offices. I just got a skeleton tour when I arrived and will see more of the place tomorrow.

I need to go to dinner now, but I wanted to write and let everyone know that I arrived to the first part of the trip safely. Thank you all for your continued prayers.
