BeZao.com: Tell us a little about yourself and how you ended up in Uganda?

By Faith...that is the way that Christ has asked us to live this Christian life.

Faith, the opposite of fear, is moving beyond your feelings, stepping out into the unknown, trusting that your foot will land on the solid Rock of Christ.

If you are the single type, looking for another "just right" type out there, you may have tried this or this, in an effort to meet Mr. or Ms. Right.

I have another suggestion for you. Why not try this?

Over the past few months, Wendy, our blogger living in Palawan Philippines became friends with a young pilot who came to the island to serve the community and the clinic there in her village. Over the course of several months, their friendship grew into more, and they are now engaged.

Thank you so much for your responses to my last email and to the needs in the clinic!

I've gotten to go on about 3 medical runs now, and one flight just for fun (that first one where I rode in the stretcher/basket to try it out before using it on patients). The word is getting out quickly and we have almost daily requests for help with various sick people in far away places. We can't go to all of them so it's really hard to decide which ones are truly emergencies or which ones can wait 'til we get there on foot or until they can carry the patient here, if the river isn't flooded.

Where to begin? I've had some incredible experiences lately and so many things to praise God for. I wish I could write many of you personally, but time and computer problems are always an issue so please forgive me again for this group email.

Personal Miracle/healing

Wendy is a registered nurse practicing in the jungle mountains of the Philippines. She has been living in a thatched roof hut, overlooking a lush tropical forest, serving the Palawan people as their only medical caregiver, and as a friend. Everything about her life there is rural in a most primitive sense. Check out the pictures and watch for future posts filled with stories of her adventures. You'll be awed.

BZ: So, Wendy, you're a real live missionary. Tell me a little about where you live and what you do there.

I live in a remote village in the mountain jungles of Palawan, Philippines. I work as a nurse in the only clinic available for most of the whole mountain range. I work together with a team to help the very primitive tribal people with their health and spiritual needs.

BZ: Did you always know you would work outside of America, or was there an event or a person who inspired your mission spirit? Basically, how did you end up where you are now?
