Only a few weeks until launch!!! Can you believe it!! We did it!! We still got a long way to go but thanks to your efforts prayers and support. Were going to Guatemala in only a few weeks!

In other news I came back to spend Christmas with my family in Orlando FL. Such a beautiful city, I missed it. As I was wondering around Universal Studios I saw a billboard with spiderman saying Be Courageous. It made me think of this scripture.

Deuteronomy 31:6

New International Version (NIV)
6 Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”

There is sooo much uncertainty with what I am about to do. I have never been on a mission trip to a third world nation before, never been to the countries we are going to, never lived with so people my age, never had to raise money before for anything. The list would go on and on I would be lying and say im not worried at all. There is soooo much strength in my weakness though God has done so much to bring me this far. He has moved in my life in ways ive never experienced and ive not even left yet.

I really just want to encourage anyone that is worried, scared, stressed, or fearful today. BE COURAGEOUS! take risks! do something crazy for God! He wants you to take him at his word and LIVE BIG not just dream big but LIVE BIG! A life that is rich, blessed, happy and filled to the brim with a love you have never known before.

If I can be praying for you in any way please let me know also if I dont have your email please send it to me I am in the process of putting my email newsletter together. Which im hoping to send out once every week from field.

Have a great Christmas everyone! Thanks for reading your awesome!
