It is amazing to arrive in a country that God has called you to and feel as though it is home. When I arrived here on the 23rd of July, I knew I landed someplace special. What I didn't know was that it may become my permanent home in which to serve God. How marvelous is God!
Upon arriving and meeting 16 beautiful little faces at La Casa Esperanza I realized just how much God can really accomplish through his people. It makes me more determined to use my life for service to God. I am now convinced that my calling to teach in Dallas was the preparatory stage for this. While I still feel unworthy and unprepared for what is ahead I am willing to walk this path with Jesus as my constant companion, guide, and savior. I am asking you to please pray for me to hear God's voice clearly in this calling, that I may act with wisdom, and to walk with courage, that I may go wherever he sends me. ~

- I am presently a teacher in Dallas, Texas in a 5th grade classroom. I hold a B.S. in Elementary Education and M.S. in Educational Leadership. I am also certified as an ESL teacher. Currently, I teach Reading, Language Arts, Social Studies, and Science. I can teach math as well! I love teaching, inspiring thought, and working as part of a community, to support the success of children. I have been in the classroom for 10 years. My goal with this blog is share what I have learned, learn more from others, and develop a network of professionals.

Your blog is beautiful, Barbara. You did a fantastic job on it. I stand in awe of what you are doing and praise you for being such a good and faithful servant. It takes a kind and loving heart and a righteous spirit to do the kind of work you are doing, and you obviously have both. It also takes a lot of courage and faith to follow God's calling, and you certainly have no shortage of those traits either. And your love for children is unsurpassed. I admire you so much! I wish you all the best in your mission and will try to help you in whatever capacity I can. May God bless you abundantly because you certainly deserve it, Barbara!
