The day has begun

Hello All! So My Adventure is just beginning as we put a slow end to training camp. Although we have only been here for 3 days it feels like forever! So many things that we have done like Chapel and Awesome worship time! I realized its been almost a year since Ive had Crazy awesome singing time to God. It was very enjoyable and thats one thing I want to continue when I get back. Well, we have heard stories about the places were going, learned a little language and had an awesome cuddle party under the tarp one night. It was very exciting with the 23 of us having a sleepover but then we all...

One Word

Training camp has been awesome so far.  One word to describe this week: EXCITEMENT!  As a leader this is my second time in a training camp, and even though I'm learning a lot of the same things, I still have a ridiculous amount of enthusiasm and excitement in my bones. If life on the field in Kenya is going to be anything like training camp has been, this is going to be a season full of energy.  God has been faithfully showing up and using worship and prayer to build me up with anticipation at the amazing things He is going to do this summer. I don't know what these...

Training Camp!

This awesome journey to Kenya started 3 days ago when 200 others arrived at training camp in Toccoa Falls, Georgia. I love it so far!

Each one of us has come here with different gifts, strengths and...

What did I get myself into!?!

Habari friends! (Thats "hello" in Swahili if you were wondering) I am here at training camp at Toccoa Falls college in Georgia and i am drinking the best sweet tea i have EVER had!

I have already had so many great advetures such as a bonfire, campout with my whole team, surrender hike, dance off and hammock time. The worship times...

Things Are Getting Weird

     Training Camp has been quite the experience. I didn't really know what to expect and nothing could have prepared me for it.       Before I left for my trip, I wasn't really that excited. I was so busy and stressed trying to get everyting done that I didn't have time to be excited. I didn't really have much emotion about it. I thought that when I got here it would finally seem real and I would be pumped. Not the case. I knew how I was supposed to feel, but I just felt confused and distant; like I couldn't be real about it...

T.I.A.

Well…training camp has been good. It has taken me out of my comfort zone a little bit, which in the end is always good! I can’t wait to go to Kenya and see what God is going to do through us. So now it’s time for Africa! 🙂
