Ever since the beginning of my sophomore year I have felt a calling from God on my heart for missions. From September 2nd, 2010 until April 5th, 2011 I will be following that call. Below are the many God-driven moments and blessings that I am a part of as I spend my time here in South Africa. All I ask is that you would keep me in your prayers as I embark on this amazing adventure.

Here I Go!

     Many years ago, God called me to something different and to break out of the norm. He called me to pick up my life and follow Him in missions, and now I find myself leaving for South Africa for 8 months on September 2nd. At a time in my life when I should be going to college and figuring out what I want to do with the rest of my life, I will be playing with the street children and reaching out to the prostitutes. For the first 6 months I will be in Pretoria, South Africa in a Missions Discipleship Program (MDT) and then traveling to Zambia to work in an orphanage for the final 2 months. I am so excited to experience God and His love in a whole new way! I will try to blog and put pictures up on Facebook as often as I can once I'm there to share my experience with you all, but I will never know how often I'll have internet access.Thank you all so much for your prayers and support and I can't wait to start this journey and new chapter in my life!
