Hello Friends!
I hope you are enjoying this Thanksgiving by filling up with turkey and new memories! As you already know I am back from my year overseas and have moved down to Georgia. This past year I have been with an organization called Adventures in Missions. This is a non profit organization that sends people of all ages overseas to work with churches and share the gospel and love of Jesus Christ. Along with missions trips they also have a discipleship school called Center for Global Action (CGA for short), this is where I am.
CGA is also a non-profit school, during my time here I will be learning what it looks like to be a servant leader. We study the ways that Jesus lead in the bible through bible studies and books. Since being here this past month I have learned more about who Christ is and who I am in Him. We have had lessons on boundaries, emotional health and vulnerability. We live in community constantly and we are surrounded by people who call us higher and consistently point us back to Christ. Each one of my classmates is paired with a discipler as well as myself and they are there for us through our time in CGA. They have already been through the CGA program so they understand what is happening. I have grown more in this one month than I did on my race, we dove right into our classes full speed and we won’t be slowing down until graduation in March.
I understand that it is a strange request when you get a letter about supporting someone’s school, but this is so much more than that. At the end of each year there is something called the capstone trip, this only happens if every CGA participant is fully funded by December 1st. This capstone trip is an opportunity for us to take everything that we have learned in class and take it to the field. With December 1st drawing closer and closer I ask that you prayerfully consider supporting me in this season. As of right now I have to raise a total of $1,656. I know that the Lord will provide my every need and right now I need your help! You can donate by going to the link down below and clicking the donate button.
I hope you have a fabulous holiday season and I pray blessings over each and every one of you.
If you are or have already supported me I just want to thank you so much because I would not be here without you!
Thanks SO Much!
