for Jesus! phew. probably worried ya'll at first ( I have some southern friends that say ya'll a lot so it's just kind of my new word of choice…I don't actually say it out loud though, yet). But, just to clear the air I'm still going on this mission trip. Let's be honest, training camp has been pretty intense. And exhausting. And challenging. But, in really awesome ways. I guess I didn't expect to experience any of that until I actually got to the field…but thank the Lord I did. The days are running together already, but we had this great...

It's been a while since my last blog, so I felt it was necessary for me to let my readers know how I am doing. Things continue to move alone very fast at Nueva Vida, as we just finished up VBS last week which turned out to be a huge success. Props to everyone on Team Nueva Vida for making that happen.
