I'M SO EXCITED

I think I told you all a few months ago about the African women I found walking along the highway. They didn't speak English and I drove away crying and saying, "I just wanted to be your friend!" Well, a month or two later I was shopping in Marshall's and the girl at the checkout had a very familiar accent. I immediately asked where she was from. She's from Southern Sudan!!!! (northern border of Uganda) I told her I had been looking for friends from Africa and she replied (in a very Sarah-like accent), "I'm the one!" She gave me her number and we've talked on the phone a few times, but I have been out of town all summer. Today I finally got to go to her house and meet her mother, four brothers, and her 4 month old baby! I have a new friend!!!! I couldn't be more excited.
Her name is Grace and she is a senior at Central High School. Her family has been here 2 years and she says she doesn't really have any friends so I think she's excited too...even if I am an old woman! She's working at Marshall's two days a week and supporting her entire family. Please pray that God will use me in her life. There must be a reason we met. I KNEW shopping was a ministry!
