And here is my most recent prayer letter which I haven't actually sent out yet, but it will go out soon.
Dear Friend,
It is exciting for me to write, for the first time, with the future so clearly in mind.
You may already know that I spent 10 weeks in Ohio traveling with and learning from the Word of Life Area Missionaries there. Through all of these experiences, I have become convinced that it is in this ministry that God wants me to invest my life. Foreign missionary Jim Elliot used to speak of living one’s life with “reckless abandon” for the cause of Christ. Now that God has provided clear direction for me, I am eager to continue to pursue His will with everything I have.
Your Role
Many of you have already been a part of that pursuit. The investments you have made enabled me to travel to Ohio and gain invaluable ministry experience. While I was there, it became apparent that many were upholding me in prayer as I was far from home and trying to keep my balance while encountering so many new things. Looking back on those weeks, I can say with certainty that they were some of the most impacting of my life.
Thank you for making my internship possible!
Up and Coming…
As I look ahead, there are many more exciting times on the horizon. One of the biggest is a chance to minister at the Word of Life camp in California. I will be able to minister to children, teens, and leaders for two weeks in July. A little closer to today is a trip to Florida to talk to students about coming on staff with Word of Life.
Please continue praying for me throughout this upcoming year. Also, please prayerfully consider investing in my ministry through financial support as God uses these next months to broaden my experience and teach me how to serve Him more effectively.
