I am so blessed to belong to a community of believers that surround each other with love and support and encouragement.  This community is my church family Calvary Community Church!  They have come out this week for a few crazy fun-raisers 

and have been giving so sacrificially and I know they are praying!  It's awesome! I pray that God will bless each one in awesome and neat ways as they trust Him this year as well!  I also could not do any of this without the love from my family.  They are supportive and strong for me and that is just I need!  

So Calvary Community- bye for now but see you soon!

The next community I would like to introduce you to will be my family for the next 11 months!  Here is a group shot of the entire squad.  Good luck locating me way in the back 🙂 
We are 62 and strong!  We are the "L" sqad and our team color is orange.  Here are 3 squad leaders that will be leading us for the first few months of the trip.  KK, Seth Jr, and Carly

My real community will happen with 6 others that I will be traveling closely with the entire 11 months so that can be top on your prayer list..that I don't annoy them too much 🙂  We call ourselves "Sweet Aroma" as that is what we hope to be for all those we encounter.  The sweet aroma of Jesus!  

So introducing:  Noah, Emily, Moriah, Christin, Carly, Me, and Jason!!  

My biggest request is that I will get all that I need to get done, done.  That I will be able to peel myself away from my nieces in a dignified manner, and that I will give 100% to this new journey!  More to come! Especially for safe travels, health, team unity, and all of those we'll be ministering too and with!  Thanks!!  God Bless!
