Hey everyone! 
The time is drawing near…(intense drum roll)…I am leaving in 6 days!  I am getting pretty pumped.  But I’m also incredibly nervous. 
 
One thing that really calms me down is knowing that my team is going to be awesome.  This won’t be a long post, but I wanted to take a moment to introduce you to them a little more so you’ll get a better idea of how God has really blessed me.
 
 
Left to right: Stephanie Webster, Alex Cole, me, Jonathon Beckman, Carrie Campbell, Mary Hollis and Kirsten Geroge. 
 
This is my team.  If the fake facial hair is not a big enough indicator of how dorky we can be…I’m sure more stories will crop up.
 
These guys are laid back, solid, fun to be around and really passionate about serving God and other people.  As my previous post describes, our team name centers around community resulting in action and I really feel we’ll live up to it. 
 
As I continue to update this blog and begin to write and post video and pictures for my other one (compasstar.blogspot.com), you’ll see and hear a lot more from them.
