Hey everyone!
As mentioned in my first post, I will be going to Africa this summer, specifically Ghana. I will be going in May, after this semester of college is finished. I am so excited to have been accepted, since I had to apply and schedule an interview. God has really blessed me with this opportunity to serve, love, and meet people here at Baylor. I can only imagine what He will do with our team when we reach Ghana. Our team consists of about 14 people, 3 of which are not students but team leaders. I am so excited to be on this journey of raising funds and building each other up in God's word through this process. We will be ministering primarily at a local orphanage, teaching and supplying their needs through love and Christ. Let me know if you would like to support us financially, and of course, be supporting us through prayer throughout the process! Thank you for all your support and love! God Bless!

Carpe Diem
"Carpe diem". Seize the day!
This phrase, given to us by Horace in one of his Latin poems, is a good depiction of what I plan on doing with my life. I plan to live life according to God's will and purpose, and I will do my best to have the best time possible. So many opportunities have been given to me in my lifetime, and I choose to take them and look for even more. Yes, this is all very cheesy, but adventure and change is always waiting for us. It sneeks up on us, but I have found that sneeking up on it is a much more enjoyable experience. Therefore, I have actually started a blog, mainly to give updates on my time at Baylor, my world travels, random nothingness, and my upcoming missions trip to Ghana(which you will see more about later). I can't wait to just blab about random stuff on here, and actually have someone read it, maybe. If not, then I still get to blab, which is positive, I think. I love you guys! Since I know this is probably only close friends and family who will read it. :)
Props to Mom for inspiring this weeks verse: "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord. "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future." -Jeremiah 29:11
