When we all arrived in the airport 3 days ago, none of us really knew what to expect of each other. We didn’t know how we would grow along side each other or what that would look like. Personally I knew we would all grow to be great women and men of God over the next 2 months while ministering to the people of Peru. I knew there was a lot to grow in, so it would take a long time to get there. As it turns out, God had greater plans for many of us. He plans to send us out as different people as who we were back home. In this past few days I have experienced and witnessed an unexpected...

This trip might have to be considered the best thing that has happened to me (other than getting saved)   Ummm and yes it is only day three!   I have been changed so much in a short period, and I never knew that 18 people could come to be this close in such little time. God is already moving in a powerful way and each one of us are experiencing his love and presence in a deep sense. During our time in Atlanta we met a man named “Two Shadows” It was a Friday night and this man was stuck in some serious depression. After a few of us spoke truth into this man...

Before I came on this trip I asked the LORD to have me fall in love with Him and be surrounded by people who are in the same boat. I mean, I already love Him but I want more — I want to fall in love with Him. I want to have such a deep relationship with Him that almost none can fathom. Training camp has been an amazing experience. However, connecting with my teammates throughout this experience has been even more amazing! I shared with some of my teammates that I know it was no coincidence that I have been chosen to be a part of this particular team. They are all either...

       Hallelujah! The Lord is so good and faithful to answer prayers on the trip already! Saturday morning I shared with my team that over the past couple months God has freed me from chains of comparison, insecurities, lies, and fear of what others think. Though I knew God freed me, I struggled with questioning if I was really free and standing firm in freedom. I asked my team to pray over me, and already God has answered our prayers beyond my imagination! God called me to fully surrender my fear and care of what others think of me, and He has...

Since I have been here, so many great things have happened. It’s day four, and it feels like day 104. (But in a good way!)  I realized before I came that I had so many stresses and worries that were taking over. I was so excited for the trip.. but at the same time I had a stress that was just overwhelming. But once I got here, wow. God has answered all of my prayers. Not only mine, but everyone’s! My team is absolutely amazing! I really could not ask for a more welcoming, more open, more wonderful group as my team and ultimately my family for the next two months....

Hola friends and family,   God is sooooo good!  These past couple days have been awesome and God has proven Himself real to me.  Also, I am so encouraged by the team and unity that God has already given us and I’m so excited for it to grow even more!  There is so much life here and as mentioned before, God has shown Himself real.  The team has grown so close and I know personally, I am free to open up already with issues pressing on my heart, even after only 3 days.  One especially is apathy and even since Saturday, there has been more joy and peace...
