Ten years? I have no clue.

Ten years is a long time to plan in advance. I do not know where I will be next year, so trying to write about where I will be in ten years is very hard. I would like to be a missionary to a foreign country, so here goes a bit of abstract thinking. In ten years I will be in either rural China or the bush of Africa. I will have planted several churches and be fluent in the local language. I will finally have a wife with a son of 2 years and a girl on the way. We will be working to educate local children on efficient farming techniques. There will be one other family a day's journey away. They have a baby girl. We meet every weekend to have fellowship and practice English. We switch towns each week. The food is always great and worth the hour of walking. It is a little hard with babies and one on the way. We have been here for 10 months and last month we finished our new church building. The church outgrew our house after 6 months and we had to meet outside for a few months. Thankfully this was during the dry season and we met at night. Currently we meet on Tuesdays and Thursday nights after dinner. We are praying that we can train a pastor from the local church and leave by the time our daughter is walking. The plan is then for us to move to a new village approximately 50 miles away and start the process anew. However, in order to do that we must travel home to America and raise more money. it doesn't make much sense, plane tickets cost as much money as we use in an entire year. But, the churches supporting us want us to speak to their congregation and come to benefit dinners. It is good to return home to visit our parents and old friends from school; plus the doctors and bankers. We are praying hard for our safety when we do return from America. The tribe has been known to be hostile towards white people. Because of this, my friend and I will go to the village first and hope to be received. We may die, but all for the glory of God.

This is just speculative, but I think it would be really fun. Of course I could be working at a church here in America.
