I have been called to the mission feild from the very beginning. At age nine, I discovered my passion for Jesus and His people that I could not contain, and now at the age of 17 I have grown both physically and spiritually into an burning flame for and have found a home in both Kenya and Uganda, and visited Central America multiple times. These short term trips are only the beginning, though. I know with all of my being that I am called to long-term missions, and I am now about to begin the journey of a lifetime traveling across the globe in search of opportunity, beauty, and the glory of the Lord shining in three different distinct nations for three months each, nine months total. Zambia, India, and Malaysia. These are the countries my feet will soon be touching, the nations of people I will soon be living with, sharing the love of Christ with, loving on, and advocating for. I have no idea what to expect, no clue how I will be living, what I will be eating, or even who I will be living with. All I know and all I need to know is that the Lord is going to be walking with me through every step, in every country, all 9 months. As I spend these next 12 months fundraising, praying, and preparing, I ask that as my friends and supporters you will be praying for me- too. These next two years as a whole will not be easy. I’m going to be stretched in ways never imagined, meeting people from all different backgrounds with all different stories, living in one small tent, out of one large backpack, and be dependent on a whole lot of Jesus. My fundraising goal is $13,800, which trust me- I know sounds intimidating. But I have nothing but faith in the call that the Lord has placed on my life from the very beginning, and I have never been so excited to embark on such an amazing journey, with such a gracious Heavenly Father.
Please feel free to send your prayers and support both emotionally and financially as I will need all the help I can get. The World Race is a mission trip I have been praying about for years, and I have full confidence in the footsteps that God is making for me to follow in. Thank you so much for always following along with your love and support from the very beginning, as I know God will use you to bring the miracles I need. I can’t wait to begin this journey with you all!
Watching Him work,
