Hey ya’ll! My name is Colleen and I’m 30. I have been a Christian for as long as I can remember but it has only been within the past few years that I have learned what it means to truly walk by faith. I have an amazing, godly family who have been and continue to be so supportive and loving. I am reminded often, though, that not everyone has had such a great upbringing, or people who care about them like my parents care about me. Which is a huge reason I am going on the World Race. I think about my nieces and how much I love them, and how I would do anything to make sure they are safe. Then I think about all the people around the world that don’t have family, like mine, who care and love them unconditionally the way I love my nieces. And I was born into this family by no choice of my own. It was truly the grace of God. I was blessed so that I could in turn bless others. The Lord overflowed my cup so that I could pour into others live. I want everyone to know the loving Father that we have and to share in that hope that he so freely gives. With that said, here are some tidbits about me.
I’m a native Tennessean with a Bachelors degree in fine art from East Tennessee State University.
I’ve spent the past two years working with Compassion International as a tour manager for the Compassion Experience.
The Lord has blessed me with multiple soul friends.
I have one older sister and brother in law who have two little girls which mean the world to me!
I’m an INFJ or an ISTJ depending on the day or instance. lol.
