MEET THE TEAM!!! If you know me at all you can tell just by this picture how perfectly I fit in with them? We have already had an amazing time together, just getting to know each other. SO, let me tell ya ’bout a few incredible couple of days that I’ve just had here at training camp! I have been here in Gainesville, GA at the AIM (Adventures in Missions) headquarters since last Thursday January 21st.

“Guilt went looking for my past but all it found was love.And I’ve been transformed.” Or, to be a little more accurate, I’ve been transforming. That’s kind of been God’s theme for my life this past year. Oh and has it been incredible. As most of you know, I spent last July in Africa.

Laugh a little louder.Get the freak out of your comfort zone because out in the waves, that’s where life happens. That’s where I’m going to do the stuff you can’t imagine right now but I can’t do a thing until you’re out there so let’s go.”Out in the waters, this is where He brought me.This is my life.It’s little girls blowing kisses.
