Hey everyone!! First off I just want to apologize to my friends and family for not blogging yet!!  I hope you all understand that I get a little tied up and focused on other things haha!  So my team is absolutely amazing and God has really blessed us with this natural feeling of family.  Now training camp is over and we are in another part of the world and we are still that tight knit family.  The people here are amazing.  Everyone is so friendly and they have all greeted us with open arms and warm hearts.  We have played crazy and intense games of hacky...

  OH wonderful friends and family!     Africa is like nothing I imagined and it is 10 times better! Well not that I thought it was going to be bad but it’s just definitely 10 times different then I expected! We were expecting to sleep in tents and we show up and now we are sleeping indoors on bunk beds! Patrice is a really nice man that makes our breakfast, lunch and dinner! He lets us help him prepare the meals and He creates meals for us that are so delicious! ICC the church we are partnering with has embraced us and has blessed us with buckets of blessings! Our...

  Mambo, We arrived in Kenya a few days ago and have hit the ground running. Our host church is full of amazing members with the love of God overflowing from their hearts! I am more than excited to be learning the language, culture, and way of life. My team has become a huge cohesive unit. We are a family! I am excited to see the work God has in store for our team and in our own lives!  With the World Cup rapidly approaching ministry opportunities are so abundant. I pray that we break down our own personal walls that may hinder or ministry experience and we...

WE ARE HERE!!!! After a super long plane ride we have finally made it to Kenya.  We were greeted at the airport by numerous smiling faces from the International Christian Center offering to carry our bags.  Once we got to their church a huge feast was prepared.  After introductions with our new friends they taught us multiple games to get to know each others’ names.  In return we taught them signs.  That’s right SIGNS.  If we are playing signs in Kenya I know this summer is going to be great!  Anyways everything has been awesome so far and I...

Friends & Family,   It is with SO much happiness that I can say that we made it!!!! We are in Kenya!!!!!!!!
