I came to <a title=\"Kelsey in Zambia\" href=\"http:\/\/kelsweeks.blogspot.com\/2011\/08\/culture-shock.html\">this one<\/a> and thought I needed to share it. You see Kelsey is not starting college now like most of her friends who graduated a few months ago. She is taking a gap year in Zambia. Go back and click the link &#8211; she talks about culture shock and she&#8217;s really experiencing it in a big way. You can support here by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shepsstaff.org\/weeks.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">clicking her<\/a>e. Pray that God will use this time and these experiences to mold her into the person He wants. Thank Him for her safety and protection, and for her willing heart and hands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; So today I took a look at my Google Reader feed.
