“How beautiful and delightful on the mountains are the feet of Gwendoline Albright Ndikumagenge, who will be bringing good news, Who will be announcing peace, Who will be bringing the good news of good things, announcing salvation, Who will be saying to "The World", “Your God reigns!” - through love, design, and discipleship.
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭52:7‬ ‭AMP‬‬

 It's official Family!

I am moving to Colorado Springs in 4 days, and I will be working on the Bongolo Hospital civil assessment and master plan in Bongolo, Gabon. 

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your support, prayers, and encouragements.

Next week, I’ll officially join the EMI USA office in Colorado Springs to help design a world of hope and bring light to those who wouldn't get it otherwise. With a team of architects, civil and electrical engineering, I will be helping develop a master plan update and architectural design for the next new building to be constructed on the campus - a new maternity/women's health building. 

So often careers are focused on achieving milestones and building reputations; but for me, my goal continues to be: becoming one who can shine a light in the lives of those who are living in their deepest, darkest hour of need serving them with all I am and with all I have. 

In all my life, the most fulfilling times have always been the times I did something that brought a smile, hope, and love to someone else's life. It is such an honor that I will now be doing it as a full-time job and using architecture as a tool. But the best of it all is to have so many of you come alongside me and the EMI team teaching me and supporting me in my quest to change lives around the world. Thank you to every one of you who has already given, prayed, and continues to help me in different ways!

The English definition of purpose is “the reason something is done, used, or created.” And the Bible affirms in Proverbs 20:5 that “The purposes of a person’s heart are deep waters, but one who has insight draws them out”. After these few months of reconnecting with friends, meeting new people, studying for one of my licensing exams, and spending time with my brother, I've discovered that a big part of my purpose, is truly to be an "Albright". To bring light, hope, and love to every person and place I find myself in.

Something tells me that this new season isn’t only about a new job, a new environment, new relationships, and working with new people. I believe that it's about stepping into a new route in which I get to learn how to be an Albright to the world with everything that I am and everything that I have. 

What I want more than anything is for me with your help to be able to learn as fast as possible, get used to chaos, hardship, and darkness while keeping a smile as bright as possible so I can share it with the world in need. Why? Because we get to bring the light, love, and hope – the light, hope, and love of Jesus. We get to bring God's love to people who wouldn't get it otherwise. And we are starting with Colorado Springs, USA, and Bongolo, Gabon.

As I learn to live in complete surrender in this season, would you please pray with me that this is a start of a fulfilling journey?

- "For I know that through your prayers and the help of the Spirit of Jesus Christ this will turn out for my good," - Philippians 1:19

...But how can they call on him to save them unless they believe in him? And how can they believe in him if they have never heard about him? And how can they hear about him unless someone tells them? And how will anyone go and tell them without being sent? That is why the Scriptures say, “How beautiful are the feet of messengers who bring good news!" - Romans 10:14-15
