Next destination? Africa.


I’m going to Ethiopia, Africa.

Now, I didn’t just wake up one day and decide to go. Honestly, I’ve never even been on a Mission Trip, so this is all new to me.

I’ve always heard other’s Mission Trip stories of how God used them, changed them and they always had incredible pictures!

Now, I want my own story and I want you to be a part of it.

Yes, I want YOU to travel with me and Mission of Mercy for this crazy, awesome, life-changing, 10-day trip in September. Speaking of Mission of Mercy, I’m so excited we’re working with their experienced team and that they will be there every step of the way!

Please, pray about joining me in Ethiopia this September to go as the hands and feet of Jesus to build a restroom/shower facility, do VBS with the kids, go to an Ethiopian Church and whatever else God wants to do through us there.

If you’ve always wanted your own story, here’s your chance.

P.S. The day before I heard about this trip, I wrote down this prayer: "Lord, sometimes I'm afraid of letting You have complete control of my life. Show me how to be a "yes" kind of girl, like Mary was, and use me to bring You to others." ...the very next day I was asked to go on this trip. God answers prayers, and specifically too! He'll do the same for you.

How amazing that you said "yes" and he knew what the question would be! If you read on our blog about our story. 4 months before we started the adoption process God showed me a verse, and I said yes... little did I know it was such a different picture than I had envisioned for myself! :) He showed me the verse "leave your country and your people... and go to the land I will show you." I took this as my husband and I stepping out in faith to do missions... but I didnt see that I was going, but coming back with an amazing gift :) our precious boy! Cant wait until that day!

That's incredible. Totally God :) My family just adopted 3 little girls back on Valentine's Day and I can't imagine our lives without them. They've blessed us so much, even though people think we're crazy! God is definitely blessing you too!
