Heyyoo! It's happening!! Welcome to my fundraising page, I'm so happy you're here :) I have officially committed to the World Race for 11 months beginning this September!! It's been about 5 years since I have given my life to Christ (Aug. 2018) this life is beautiful, nothing short from difficult. But focusing on God and his goodness and his faithfulness has been so sweet. God has been such a beautiful, reliant, kind, constant in my life. In every stage that I find myself in I can feel him longing for a closer relationship with me, even when I don't feel like it. Just getting into his presence, reading his word, sitting in silence but feeling him near has been my hope and joy throughout the years. He has been with me on the hill tops and in the valleys and for that I am forever thankful. 

That is why I have decided to join the World Race! Praise God! I don't know the next time I will be given this amazing opportunity to serve the Lord wholeheartedly without distractions. He sent his one and only son Jesus Christ to live a completely sinless life, die for the sins of the world past present and future, and defeat death so that we could have that same spirit within us and have a close and intimate relationship with our God! I am so thankful and I am willing to take up my cross daily to live a life that would give all of the glory to God!

On this 11 month trip I want the world to see God working from within me. Every good deed, every good word, every good thing is from God! I want to give God all of the glory. He is completely sovereign and I truly believe I would not be where I am today without his faithfulness. As I go on this missions trip I want everyone to know that this is all for God and from God. 

I am stoked to share the love of God with people all around the world! We will be traveling to 6 different countries; Guatemala, Romania, Albania, Turkey, Jordan & South Asia. There will be different teams working with different organizations in each country we will work with orphanages, refugees, evangelism, etc. I am ready to be the hands & feet of Jesus! To indulge in the different cultures, to get to know people from different countries, realize how blessed I am to be from the US but also to utilize those blessings to bless others!

With all of that being said I will need to fundraise $19,700 for this trip! If you would like to donate, I would highly encourage you to donate through this website as you can claim this on your taxes for next year and get every dollar back! This is because Adventures in Missions is a 501-C(3) non profit organization, meaning that when you donate it is a tax deductible! When you donate you will be given a year end statement meaning that you can claim your donation on your taxes!

If you are unable to donate monetarily that is okay! I believe in the power of prayer and encourage you to pray for the team as we prepare to head out in the beginning of September and will be gone through the month of July 2024. Prayer that we would carry the light of the Holy Spirit through our daily time on the field. Prayer that we would be completely reliant on the Lord for all of our needs. Prayer for discernment. Prayer for all of us to meet our fundraising goals. And prayer to boldly share the gospel with everyone we meet! 

Thank you so much for reading through & thank you for joining me on this amazing journey. I cannot wait to share with you all how God will work through this! Please contact me if you have any questions :)
