I am courageous through God. What encouraging words. Since I arrived in Atlanta, which happened to be on my birthday, I fought with God on why he wanted me to leave my family, friends, and school. I knew I was supposed to be extending the kingdom and showing people God’s love who needed to know about it, but I felt weak. Through the few days I have been at training camp I have truly connected with God on such a different level. Three people prayed over me, one person I had never met! All three people telling me that I was courageous. I don’t know about most people but to...

Training Camp

By this time tomorrow, I’ll be in another country. I still can’t wrap my mind around that. Training camp has been pretty crazy, but I feel like our team has meshed together really well. The first day in Atlanta, after riding the Marta, we arrived in a place called the SafeHouse. They’re an organization that provides ministries for the homeless and that’s where we would be sleeping for the first night. Late that night, we were given the opportunity to go out onto the streets and just talk to people. We walked a...

It is my fourth day here at training camp and today is the last day we will be here. Tomorrow my team and i will be on our way flying to the beautiful Guatemala lands. Upon arriving we stayed the first night at a safe house. Kind of like a shelter. Our first activity was to walk around atlanta, Georgia and just talk to the people around us. It happened to be Dragoncon weekend where everyone is dressed up in costums and such. it was pretty much the most interesting thing i observed in a while. first i met these two men from brazil with my one teammate and we were just making casual...

“It’s in Christ that we find out who we are and what we are living for. Long before we first heard of Christ,…He had His eye on us, had designs on us for glorious living, part of the overall purpose He is working out in everything and everyone.” Ephesians 1:11 (Msg) Let me first start off by saying that this is not my plan, but His. Being back in Alabama with all my friends would definitely be a lot easier. I fought God for months about coming on this trip. I didn’t understand why God would want me to leave the life I had when I was already so...

July 20-22 were three of the most beautiful, faith-growing, amazing, incredible, remarkable, astounding, unbelievable, and miraculous days of my life. On July 20th, our team leaders informed us that we would be heading out on a Luke 10 Journey. What is a Luke 10 journey you may ask? A Luke 10 journey is modeled after how the Lord sent out His disciples: without food, without money, and without a place to stay. I encourage you to read about it for yourself in Luke 10:1-12 and Matthew 10:1-23. So with Luke 10 in mind, the fourteen of us split into four groups and headed in all different...
