Hi, everyone. Welcome to At Home with Sally. I'm Sally Clarkson, and I have the biggest

privilege in the world to be with so many friends from all over the world who join me every week

to listen to my stories, inspiration, biblical encouragement, and I am just so

glad that you're here today. Thanks so much for joining me.

Hello, my friends. How are you? This is Sally Clarkson, and I am so glad that you join me tonight.

I am still on a little family trip vacay here in Oxford in the UK, and I am so enjoying one of my

favorite places in the world.

Many people have said, how did you end up there?

It started out many years ago when I first went into missions,

and I lived in Vienna for a year,

then I traveled in Romania, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, and Yugoslavia

for several years. And then I moved into Poland. And then eventually, Clay and I worked at an

international chapel in Vienna, Austria. And then eventually I came back here to work for a little bit over four years in the past few

years in ministry here in Oxford where I also had several of my children who lived here.

So it happened after many years of living, working, being in the

context of mentoring, training people doing Bible studies. And it just happens to be a place that

suited my life and my life story. So I'm having so much fun. I have several grandchildren here, four, to be exact, at the

moment. And it was so fun. The whole first day that I got to rendezvous with them and go to a fun

little bookstore and all of us had a little treat. For about 30 or 40 minutes, I had three

little girls crawling over my lap, hugging me, sitting on me, poking me, touching me. And it was

just so much fun. It's what I miss when I'm in the States. But I also, there's so many things that I love about here.

I was able, Clay and I were able to go to London for several days with joy.
