I believe that God has gifted me with a heart for people. When I say people, I do not just mean people who are in my life and love me, so I love them. I receive genuine joy from interacting with, and most especially helping, people in need and from different cultural backgrounds than myself. Jesus tells us to go out to the Nations and share this great news that we have been gifted with. Through this mission I will be able to go out into ELEVEN different countries and share God's love and salvation with them- how amazing! 

Also, I love learning. I have always been a student that goes beyond the call of the necessity for  a class. Some may call this overachieving, but it is who I am. The way that I view going to new countries and exploring different cultures is just another, more amazing than ever before, opportunity to learn and be taught by first-hand experience with these people.
