hello lovelies,

welcome to my first blog post! i want to start off by saying i never would have dreamed that an opportunity like this would present itself to me and i’m so incredibly thankful it did. it still boggles my mind that there are so many people on this earth and that God cares for each and every one of us more than we could ever even imagine and it shocks me everyday that this is what he’s called me to do and that he’s always had a specific plan for me and my life- even when i feel i don’t deserve it. i cannot wait to start this journey and to grow closer with God and my teammates and even myself and to get to spread His word while doing all of that is just beyond me. i can only imagine how epic my 9 month long journey will be. it will be tough, sure, but i know with God and with the amazing people right beside me, we can do anything: including reaching unbelievers in a completely different world than our own. as i’m sitting here, all alone in my bed, on my 18th birthday, i can’t help but to feel overwhelming peace and grace and love and gratitude that i’ve made it this far- and that even after so many nights and days spent crying, stressing over what my life would look like after highschool, God has led me here. and i know this is where i belong. but, if any of you are like me and you can’t help but wonder “what happens next?” to you- and to myself- i say- well, i have absolutely no idea but i also have absolutely no doubt in my mind that it is going to be amazing. so if you‘d please, follow along with me, click the subscribe button, and see all of the wonderful things that are about to happen. and if you feel so called as to give a little bit, this mission is not free (though i wish it were lol) and i’d greatly appreciate any donation you can give. every dollar helps. 

many blessings and much love,
