In the Beginning...

I finally started my blog! I hope everyone finds it easily, and I'll be posting new updates and hopefully pictures throughout my time in El Salvador!

What I know now:
I am serving in El Salvador and will be training from July 20th to September 2. I am living with a family at this time somewhere near San Salvador. I will officially begin my service on September 3 in an unknown location with another unknown family. I will be working in this community in the schools (unknown specifics) and figuring out other things to do that the community wants and needs. My service ends September 3, 2012 (which seems like a VERY long time from now - but I know it will go by SO quickly!)

At this point, I am very excited and very nervous. So far, I know one other person that I will be going with, which is very nice. I will meet everyone else in LA hours before we leave the country.

That's all the news I have for now - but once I'm in country I will keep everyone updated when I can! I also would love to hear of news from the states, and as most of you know probably, I would love to know what's going on with everyone at home!

Adios for now,
Lilah Wilhelm
