Hello friends! My name is Brittany but you can call me Britt. I grew up in Virginia Beach, Virginia. I’ve lived and traveled to a lot of places in the United States. I’m a child at heart and I have a passion to make other people smile. I believe that God has hand-picked me for the world race and I’m really excited for the adventure. I’m honored I have been chosen to explore the world and most of all I am honored to spread the Gospel. “God, what can I do to make a difference?” I asked Him. “Go”, He said. I’m going to be honest, I wasn’t at all comfortable with applying for this but I knew God had called me to something bigger and greater than I could ever imagine. I’m scared, nervous, excited, joyful, honored, blessed, overwhelmed, but most of all I’m READY to do what He has created me to do. He is with me every step of the way and I have nothing to be afraid of because when I feel weak, He will be strong for me. 1 Peter 2:9 says “I am a chosen people. You are royal priests, a holy nation, and God’s very own possession. As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light.” God gave me this verse to me over a year ago and has continued to remind me of it time and time again. This is what I am called to do. I have gone through a lot of tough hardships and trials but God is going to use it for His glory, His purpose, and for His Son, JESUS CHRIST! I am so thrilled to be able to share part of my testimony with you. This is me being completely vulnerable. About 2 years ago I was in a bad spot; I had been abused and abandoned. I became pregnant and had lost my boyfriend, my job, my parents support, and was practically homeless. A few weeks later I miscarried. Wow, talk about losing it all. I had hit rock bottom and felt like I had nothing left. I had my brother and sister in law reach out and help me, they have huge hearts. God spoke to me and said, “Brittany, even when you feel like you have nothing and all has been taken away, you still have me, I’m still here.” God orchestrated for me to live in a healing house for women I’ve been at for 2 years in August 2015. Through this season in my life God has brought me out of the darkness and into His radiant light! My relationship with my parents are restored. I have been serving for over a year now in Children’s Ministry and I also serve in my churches Women’s Ministry. I have had the privilege of being able to go on a mission trip to Costa Rica this past December. Thank you Jesus for healing me, thank for you opening the doors you have for me and continue to do so, and most of all thank you for giving up your life for me.
Now here’s some fun stuff about me. I like to explore and try new things. I enjoy a hot cup of coffee. I rather be with a group of people than be alone. I do enjoy my quiet time in God’s word and in worship though. I like to write, I’m definitely a dreamer and I sometimes have outrageous goals. I didn’t say unreachable because God created me so I accept the fact I aim high and want to do amazing things. I believe God is love and His love is perfect. I have a compassionate heart for all people. I enjoy listening to peoples stories and sometimes the story behind the face is a whole lot deeper than we can see. I enjoy music and sleep, separately and together. The sound of rain is amazing to me. I really love the movie Frozen. I don’t mind cold weather but I prefer the heat. I did grow up by the beach so it has a place in my heart. I prefer to be barefoot. I’m a morning person… and a daytime person…. and a nighttime person. I do cherish my sleep though. I’m not really all that coordinated or graceful but I like to try my best at everything. Funny story actually, the day before I left for Costa Rica I ran a 12k and rolled my ankle about 2 miles in. I finished the race limping.
That night I came home and couldn’t walk, I was in SO much pain. Before I went to bed I laid hands on my ankle and prayed over it for healing and when I woke up I was fine, it was like it had never happened. I knew it was an attack from the enemy but God heals and He wants to use me to make a difference. I could go on sharing with you many stories but for now I’m going to close it out with this… I pray you will support me in this amazing adventure and pray for my team and I. I pray you will also be open to supporting me financially as well if God lays it on your heart.
Love you and God bless!
