My people,

Since there are so many words in the English language, I think it would be tough for me to put into words exactly how I feel. However, I will try my version of words. 

To my friends, thank you for the continued love, adventures, game nights, encouragement, and just being there for me. 

To my church family, I will miss you all. From the hugs, meals, encouraging talks and so on. 

To my followers, I am anxious to tell stories and for you or read them. Stories are a way for you to live vicariously through me in my journey. You get the chance to understand better what is going on and an opportunity to encourage and learn something new. I love to hear and tell stories, so hopefully, I can write my story throughout this next year for you to read. 

To my supporters, you have blown me away. The donations and support you have given me has been extraordinary. I have hit all of my deadlines which is amazing because I haven’t had to worry about that. I have relied on God through it all. As of right now, I have already reached my February deadline of $13,000. I am now just trying to achieve my final goal of $18,200. I am so close!! I am roughly around $3,000 away from that goal. Which is so amazing!

To my family, I miss you already. It is so calming to be in your presence, and I will miss that. 

To my mother and father, I love you both! Your support for me is astounding. I hope that through this journey you will be encouraged and strengthened. But mostly through it all a new experience with Christ. 

 


 

I have finally made it to COLOMBIA, my first country!!! It has been a whirlwind these past couple of days, and I am still processing everything that has been going on. I have already experienced God’s beauty over one city, salvation, and a new way of life. I am excited to see what the city of Medellín, Colombia holds for myself and my squad.
