As you all know I have always had a special place for missions in my heart, and all of the mission trips I have ever been on have really touched my life in one way or another. When I was in Nicaragua in 2008 I met Cherie
McCullah an amazing missionary that was working in one of the orphanages there. Cherie has since moved to Costa Rica where she is a mom to 6 special children ranging in age from 4-11 years old. I have been given a great opportunity to go to Costa Rica and stay with her for a month (June-July) and help the children that live there. I will be helping by teaching art, small group activities, getting the children to and from school, providing one-on-one attention, and any other miscellaneous task I get assigned! I am so very excited, and would like to invite you to pray with Torey and I as we prepare for this trip.
It's been 5 years since my internship in Nicaragua and 3 years since my week in New Mexico, and I must admit I have not been the most patient. I have tried to force things when it wasn't the right time, and been angry and hurt when they didn't work out. It has been so refreshing for this to go as smooth as it has and I am amzed that God has given me this opportunity at this time. I know this is His plan and I am excited to see what He will do in me and through me. :-)
