I am excited to share that I have raised 85% of the support needed for my mission! Thank you to all who are partnering with me financially and through prayer. Thank you to Trinity Klein and the So They Can Fund that has generously gifted me a grant. Thank you to St.Mark and all its members for continuously supporting and encouraging me throughout the years. I want each and every one of you to know how much your gifts and kind words mean to me. Thank you for partnering with me to continue the work God is doing in Guatemala. Please keep me and the Guatemalans in your prayers.

What have I been up to this summer?
Summer Camp! For two months (June and July) I worked as a summer camp counselor at St.Mark. I was the lead teacher for the 3rd-5th grade class and we had a blast! I enjoyed being able to spend my summer with the kids who I have seen grow so much over the years.
God also placed some pretty amazing coworkers in my life this summer. Not only did we enjoy each other at work but we also built strong relationships outside of work. My coworkers have been such an encouragement to me this summer that it will be bittersweet to leave them in September.
This past Sunday Pastor H. spoke on Ephesians 2:8-10: For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God_not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

When I reflect on this I am humbled. God made me to do good works, works that He is preparing me to do. He sees the needs of people, needs that I sometimes can’t or choose not to see. Yet He has chosen ME to meet those needs through the good works He has prepared for me. Knowing this gives me the confidence to know that I will be in Guatemala because of what He has prepared. The people I talk to, the people I serve, the people I grow close to will all encounter these good works that come from Christ Jesus

Oh the day that I am able to begin on this journey God has prepared for me in Guatemala!
