I’ll be typing up my journals in the next week or two. stay tuned!

I’m baaack!

Wow, what a crazy, humbling, amazing 10 days I’ve had. I am alive, just still trying to get back to life in the US.

Here’s a couple photos to tide y’all over until I get through the 1000+ my dad and I took last week!

8 days and counting…

With everything that has happened in my life in recent months, I am definitely in need of (and deserving IMHO) of a break. So, my mission trip to Guatemala next week is a welcome break/distraction.

I can’t believe it’s almost here. When I went last July, I promised them I would be coming back this year. I can’t wait to see the friends and fellow brothers/sisters in Christ I met last year… and to form new friendships and bonds that will extend beyond my time here on earth.

I have quite a few things to do in the next week (as team leader, I have to make sure everyone else gets their crap together).

I’m also sort of freaked out because last night when my team was packing up all our supplies/donations for the ministry, everyone basically said that once we get in the car to head to the airport next saturday, they will just do whatever I tell them to do. That’s a HUGE responsibility and I just pray I’m ready to be in charge of 2 13-year-olds, a 17-year-old, and 8 people who are 33-70 years old (including my dad!) :)

14 days ’til Guatemala

9yo Jasmin and Me

Time is ticking down til I’ll be in Guatemala. I cannot wait to go back. Above is a picture of me with a little girl I absolutely adore. I hope she’s still with the ministry when I get there June 7.
