I have loved to sing for as long as I can remember. My family and I gather around the old mahogony piano at my grandma's house each year to sing carols together. With my grandpa's bass voice anchoring the family, the rest of us join in with altos, sopranos, and tenors. My siblings and I belt out bluegrass songs while doing the dishes at home. My mother, sister, and I sing in three part harmony with my dad and brothers on the guitar. I have always loved music; the way that intertwined voices create beautiful, moving melodies. When I gave my life to the Lord, I...

What do you want to be when you grow up? It's the question we've all heard over the years repeatedly. For a few years my answer was lawyer, and then it was teacher. Then it was veterinarian, a writer, wedding planner and a full time missionary. I guess it's safe to say that as we change over the years, so do our goals and aspirations. I've always been the kind of person that likes to see the long term plan. I was the kind of person that applied an entire year early to college. Well, the more I learn on this trip, the more I find I am no longer that person. Before I...
