Hey Friends! 

Well just like that I am home! Crazy! It’s been an adjustment for sure but I am feeling so blessed to have experienced what I did and now bring that home. All I can say is that God is SO GOOD and I LOVE Him a lot :))

I have some exciting news about my plans for the fall…

I will be going back on the field to lead and disciple a team of 5-6 girls! As their alumni team leader I will be with them for the first 3 months of their race to help them adjust to everything the race is. I will be there to share my stories from my race, I will pour into them all the Father has taught me, and I will just be there to love these girls as they step into this new season of life. With them, I will be moving back into my tent for 6 weeks of training in Gainesville, Georgia and then will be launching to Costa Rica for another 6 weeks! 

Back in Ecuador, I had begun thinking about my plans for the fall and was fully planning to attend college. It was at that point that the Lord had started putting alumni team leading on my heart. I kept pushing it aside with my own thoughts and plans of college but I told the Lord that if my squad mentor asked me, that would be confirmation that He was calling me to alumni team lead. I continued to move forward with my own desires and wants to go to school but it was just a couple weeks later towards the end of our time in Ecuador that my squad mentor sat me down and said as she prayed about who to ask to lead in the fall, my name consistently came to mind. I was given time to think and pray about my answer, but as soon as she came to me with this I knew it was something I needed to do. I knew the Lord was calling me into deeper abandonment of my own desires and calling me into a deeper yes of what He has for me. So with an open heart to His will and plan, I said yes.

With that being said, I will need to fundraise $3,000 to lead in the fall. I would love to ask you to pray about whether you would be willing to give financially. I would also love to ask for support prayerfully for my future team of girls as they prepare to leave all they have known for this journey and for my leadership team and I as the Father prepares our hearts for this next season He has called us to. Feel free to reach out with any questions (207-347-9242 or [email protected]). I’d love to chat! 

I am beyond excited for what the Lord will do through this time. As I step into a deeper yes, He continues to reveal more of Himself and His heart to me. I am resting in complete trust that He is good and has beautifully ordained this next season of leading. Thank you so much! I truly appreciate each and everyone of you!

All the love,
