Abba is currently living in Mexico. She is Lead over the Gap year program workers at Radius International. She says, “My work is relatively the same on the weekdays. I am on-call 8am-12pm in case the interns have emergencies/questions regarding childcare. During that time, I also create schedules, prepare for meetings, organize events, review childcare lesson plans, communicate with staff, and work on answering any intern-related questions. Then there are many other little things that make their way into my schedule throughout the day as well, but those are the main things. In the afternoons, I typically have a meeting, work on finishing any administrative work, help the girls with dinner preparation, and lead them in other chore responsibilities.”

​Weekends are a sweet time to relax and try to catch up on sleep! I use these days to spend extra time in the Word, clean my apartment, stock up on groceries, and hang out with other staff. On Sundays, I am now attending an English-speaking church across the border with the interns and some of the staff. I am also privileged to be part of a community group in that church that I am able to attend every Thursday night. And then if time allows, I am able to watch CLCC’s livestream church service, which is a joy to worship with the church from 2,300 miles away!”

To destress, she will journal prayers to the Lord in the form of a letter, which helps her sort her thoughts and bring peace to her mind. She also enjoys exercise for clarity of thought

Ways we can bless her:
Gift cards for coffee, she wants to take people out and be able to bless them and treat them, pop-corners, and chocolate covered pomegranates or blueberries.Additionally she loves missionary biographies and learning how they trusted the Lord.

She loves to receive notes, especially from the Sunday school class. It is a sweet reminder of the church family who is supporting her. Welcome home letters, too. These types of notes are really encouraging.
