Leaving On A Jet Plane...

Hey Everyone,
Just wanted to update you on somethings. I have recieved my email saying to pack my bags and get my plane ticket. So I am very excited! I will arrive in Honduras on June 7, 2008. That's just around the corner. Yippeeee! I will be staying at the ranch for a few days till one of the teachers I wanted to meet leaves for home. Then afterwards I will be going to a language school for about 6weeks. This makes me a little nervous, but I'm sure I'll do great! Please keep me in your prayers. I cant wait to get there, and now I won't have to wait very long!!! I'll be writing again soon, so keep in touch. Love you all! God Bless!

WOW...Its been awhile...

Hi Everyone,
I am sorry i haven't updated lately but it's been a little busy round' here. I have been going to churches and doing my presentations all around NC lately. It's been crazy but loads of fun too. I am very excited. Its getting alot closer to the time I am leaving. Yippeee! Hopefully that will be sometime in May. :) I have also been getting things done such as my prayer cards, and yes, still raising my support. I am about $400 in monthly support away from having 100% of my goal. Well just wanted to give all of you a little update. I'm sure I'll be updating alot more now. So keep in touch . I ask you all to please continue to keep me in your prayers. Thanks to you all who are supporting me. I am so thankful for everything everyone has done, I am now so close to reaching my goal and getting to Honduras. I can't wait, this is already turning into an exciting, nervous, fun, and busy journey! God Bless!!! Love you all!

Just a little update...

Hey Everyone,

I just wanted to let everybody know I talked to the new principle and she informed me of what exactly i will be doing there. I will be teaching the pre-school children (which is only half a day). I will then be teaching the 5 & 6 graders and 8 & 9 graders Language Arts. I will be teaching the 5 & 6 graders spelling and grammer, while teaching the older children liturature. I am so excited about this. I cant wait to get there, and I pray that I make a difference in the childrens lives there. I want to be the best teacher that i can for them, and i know with Gods help i will be.

I also want to let everybody know I am still working on raising my funds to get there. Its going a little slower then I anticipated. Please keep me in your prayers. If you have any questions about any of the paperwork I have sent to you please call, emial, or let me know so that i can help with anything needed.

I will update this again soon. Love you all! Dios Le Bendiga! (God Bless You) :)

My story and fundraising...

Hi everyone, first i want to start off by thanking God for bringing me to this part of my life. I'm so excited and yes, nervous too but ready to go and do what God has planned for me.

Most know my story, its kind of long so if you want the full version then just email me and i will tell you about it. But the short version: is that I have felt like God was calling me to be a missionary since about the age of 14. I fought it and pushed it to the back of my head for quite awhile, but God made sure i never forgot about it. After going on a camping trip as a chaperone with the youth of my church i decided to follow what God has planned for me. However this wasn't as easy as it should have been so, I asked God to give me a sign to show me what i should do, and trust me when you ask, he answers and hasn't stopped giving me signs yet. This plan (mission) He has for me is to go to Honduras and work as a teacher to the orphaned children. I will be at Rancho Ebenezer in Tegucigalpa, Honduras.

I recieved my final call in December from WGO (World Gospel Outreach) the organization that I will be going with saying i have the "green light" to start my fundraising, so here i am. I will be a self supported missionary there, so i will need everyone who would like to and feels lead by God to help me through prayers, and monetary support.

I am so incredibly excited. I can't wait to get there and begin working with the children and teaching them about God's love and what he can do if you only let him. I will update this blog as much as possible, so that you all know what's going on with me and my life there. Once again thanks be to God and to all who have already and will in the future support me through prayers and/ or monetary support. I love you all. Talk to you agian soon!

PS. I am not in Honduras yet, but when i get there this will be the best way to keep up with me. Due to unreliable internet connection and stuff. So please take the time to read and see pictures of what I am doing and how Gods working there, and I will update and post as much as possible. Thanks and God Bless!
