Some basics for those of you just now dropping in: My sister and I are about to embark an 11-month Christian mission trip to 11 different countries across 4 continents. We’re headed to: Argentina, Bolivia, Paraguay, Chile, Uganda, Ethiopia, Rwanda, Serbia, Bulgaria, Romania, Cambodia, and Thailand. The work will range from country to country in partnership with established ministries in each area. We’ll work in orphanages, build churches, minister to trafficked women, and more. Between the two of us, we need to raise a total of $36,000 by October 2017.


 

As I write this, I’m on a quick coffee break in-between stories. That’s when I get a moment to breathe, to pray, to think. In-between stories.

I’m a journalist in New York City. My job is to give a voice to the voiceless. To tell people’s stories.

It’s my calling, my passion and my career. I love it.

Now, I’m preparing to give it all up. To pack up as much as I can carry and leave the rest behind.

My sister and I have always felt called to travel. We’ve always been passionate about human rights and showing people the love of God.

Now, we’re going to do that for 11 months. In 11 different countries.

God is amazing.
