Dear ___________ of C Squad,
You thought I was leading you on this crazy adventure you’re on. But jokes on you! You have led me in so many ways, it’s incredible. Thank you for inviting me into your life. Thank you for trusting me before knowing me. Thank you for trusting me after knowing me; flaws and scars and all. Thank you for letting me make mistakes. Thank you for letting me have good days and bad days.
God is always teaching us lessons no matter where we are in life. Squad leading has been no different. It has been an amazing experience for me thanks to you. Thank you for the lessons you taught me that I am still learning. Below is just one thing I learned from you because I had the gift of seeing it in you.

Life update.
Though my time as a squad leading was technically over at the end of last month, I was given the wonderful opportunity to travel with C Squad to Europe and lead the guys for a month ministry as men. We left the ladies in Bulgaria and came to Albania to join the men of B Squad for month. Please pray for me and John (friend and squad leader for B Squad who I am co-leading with this month). Pray we would lead by example, not hold anything back and that we would be led by the spirit.
After my time in Albania with the guys I will be going to Romania for the month of July to serve at Hope Church and the ministries they have there. I will be working alongside an incredible man of God who is a major contact for the Race.
Then at the end of July I will join C Squad for their third debrief (they haven’t completely gotten rid of my yet!)
It will then be time to head back to states at the beginning of August!
A BIG thank you to everyone that have financial supported on this wild journey God has me on! I can not thank you enough. If God leads you to, I have to raise an additional $500 for my extended time on the field beyond the 5 months which means I only need $1500 more!
God bless you all!
