Blogging Firsts...can I do it????

January 2013 - that was the last time I formally sent out my newsletter Charity's Chatter sharing the praises and prayer request for my life and ministry with NICS in Indonesia. 

My problem: It is a constant thought and desire of mine to send out more regular updates and yet it never seems to happen. I tell myself I have too many other things to do right now. I worry that I am not sure what to say. I wonder does anyone ever read my newsletter anyways? Yet, I know that it is important to keep people update to date and praying for my ministry. Without prayer support, I will never make. So what can I do?

Solution:  a blog???
While I have never really had a desire to have a blog, nor have I ever really thought that I could be a blog writer, since being back in Flagstaff, I have been encouraged to try blogging and see if that will be an easier format for me to send out my updates and posts on my life as a global nomad. While I still will have the same problems with being busy, worrying about what to say, and wondering if what I write is worthwhile for people to read, I am going to try it. Who knows- maybe it really will be an easier for me to keep everyone up to date on my crazy life. So here goes... and experiment in the life of a missionary blogger....
