hey and welcome to my blog!

My name is Katie Lederer and I am 17 years old from Portland, Maine. I live here with my two amazing parents, my younger sister Jenna, and my golden retriever pup:) I am currently a senior at Portland High School and love it, but my case of senioritis is definitely kicking in and I am beyond excited for graduation. With this though, I am totally unsure of what I want to do with my life, and when given the opportunity to join the World Race Gap Year, I felt the Lord tugging at my heart to go and serve. So long story short, here I am! The Lord is bringing me to Costa Rica, Guatemala, Thailand, and Eswatini to be a light and to love on these communities. I am beyond thankful and can't wait to grow into the person I was created to be as I live a life for Christ. I am so so excited for this journey the Lord is bringing me on and can't wait to bring y'all along with me!
