Almost two months in now.... Can you believe how time flies? It's been a while since I have posted something, so much has happened I just don't know where to begin....

I suppose I could start by saying where I will be going for outreach in July. I have been truly blessed with the countries God has chosen for me. I will be traveling to 6 or so different countries, starting in Mexico City. We will be working with efforts that expose human trafficking, working in a lot of Red Light Districts, and also traveling to unknown tribes in Central America. Tijuana, Panama, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, and Mexico City; All of the places my team and I will be traveling to. We will be flying to San Diego California on July 1st I believe, and there, we will be picking up our 15 passenger van that we bought. We will then all crowd in to our new home on wheels, and begin our journey of a lifetime.

Yes you guessed it right, we will be driving the entire way, to Mexico, all the way down Central America, then back up again. To say the least, my group will become incredibly close, very quickly. With nothing but our camera gear and one backpack, this will be the most incredibly experience of our lives.

To everyone back home and to all the ones who have supported me throughout my journey's, I would not be in the incredible place i am today, without all of your prayers and the love that you have shown me.

God is truly molding me in to the daughter He has made me to be. I am growing so much in my relationship with Him and am seeing the gifts and strengths He has given me. These few months have been challenging me to take God out of the box I have had Him in for many years now. I have always had an image of who God is, but He is much bigger then I can know. I am finally following His path without looking back, and He is showing me the stepping stones He has put down for me. I am free in Him completely and have committed my life to living for Him alone. He is my heart... my mind... my hands... my feet.... my lips.... He is my LIFE... and that is all that matters to me.

Use me Papa as your tool, use my lips and actions to be your light in this world, I am NEW in you and will remain NEW in you for the rest of my days... guide the way Father, for I am all in and will never turn back.... I know that i will be tested over and over again, but I promise to you Papa, and I commit to you Papa, that I will remain in you and stay faithful to you Papa. You are holding my hand and you are never letting go. Thank you Papa....

Remain in me and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; It must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.

John 15:4

So Christ has truly set us free. Now make sure that you stay free and don't get tied up again in slavery to the law.

Galatians 5:1

These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold-though your faith is far more precious then mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world.

1Peter 1:7

Papa... You are good.... I am yours... Take me Father

Daddy..... I AM HOME
