Hi, my name is Maryanne Yeary.  I live in Cumming, GA right now, but I”m originally from Lakeland, Fl.  I moved to Georgia in 2006 and became a part of Abba House, a women’s ministry.  I love working here because I get to help a broken woman, like I was, see HIM and because the people here have become like a family, a word I really didn’t know or understand!  So here I am, God’s opened the door for the World Race and I can’t wait to see what he’s up to….and what he’s going to do.  I grew up thinking God was a far off figure and it was just about heaven, but he’s alive daily and real.
 
I’m also excited because one of my passions is travel and photography.  In the last 6 months, I’ve been taking classes and in one of my classes our teacher put pics up from a mission trip to Nicarauga with children in the photos and it really spoke to my heart, so I can’t wait to take pictures to capture the world.  I’m ready to step out of my small worldview and see with new eyes other cultures.
 
All my immediate family is in Lakeland, Fl.  My parents are there and I have two older sisters and many nieces and newphews…I miss them and can’t wait to see them again.
