CURRENT MISSION

Love God. Love Others. Nothing else matters.

ABOUT ME

After I graduated from high school, I took a year off before going to college to do a missions trip. Our team started in Santa Cruz for 3 months doing urban missions (like working with the homeless), then we moved South of the border for 5 months to a rural little farming community called Porvenier (30 min NE of Ensenada). It was the most wonderful, challenging, and pivotal year of my life.

My life goal is to work with disabled people in any capacity available to me. Whether it is as a teacher or an art therapist, it doesn't matter. Just as long as I am surrounded by them on a daily basis. They are beautiful people.

PHILOSOPHY

I do my best to live a life that honors God. I am messy and broken and imperfect, but grace always covers my failures. Oh, and I live life to go to Disneyland. A month without a trip to Disneyland is a wasted month in my book. ;]

Algo increíble que he hecho

I was in Culiacan, Sinaloa Mexico on a missions trip and a girl on my team healed a deaf man by praying over his ears. One minute this man was stone deaf, the next he could hear for the first time in his life. Few things are as wonderfully unbelievable as watching a man become healed of deafness.

Enseña, aprende, comparte
