If I could some up training camp with 3 words they would be “I feel free”. This last 10 days have been so amazing, and freeing. I have found family, and they are fervently following Jesus. They push me in ways I never thought possible. I love all of my 25+ Brothers and Sisters. In these last 2 weeks I have been worshipping in Love and Truth.

There has been a lot of Clapping, and dancing it’s been really fun. Not this place of looking around what everyone else is doing, but eyes fixed on Jesus. One of the things our leaders asked was spend some quality time with Jesus, and ask Him what he wants to play. At first this sounds crazy to me. Playing with Jesus? Well I asked God what he wanted to play, and he said a memory game. Which I was not expecting. He told me we are going to remember all the times you thought I was not there.

God brought me back to this memory when I was about 9 when the Cops showed up at my house, and my parents were fighting, and I would listen in the vent to make sure nothing escalated. At the time I thought I was alone. Jesus reminded me he was always there. I felt so much peace.

When it was my Sabbath I was hanging out in the woods, and I asked God what do you want to play, and he said let’s play Hopscotch. I have never really played Hopscotch, but I said sure God let’s play Hopscotch in the middle of the Woods. I used a stick to make all the squares, and I played a little just me and God. Then a couple of my Squad members were walking by and we played Hopscotch together.    

Even a random girl from another squad was walking by, and asked if she wanted to play it was so much fun. I will be asking God if he wants to play all the time now.

Revival Night was so powerful I layed everything down at the Alter. Everything that I have been holding onto for a lifetime. There was an invitation to lay it down at his feet, and to not pick it up. For me this was unforgiveness , and anxiety and fear and not forgiving myself for all the things I have walked through in my life. It was a such powerful night.

Throughout the week we were doing many team challenges that God was preparing me through. We started off flipping towels with all of us standing on it. We had to carry the other person without stepping off the towel. Which seems easy until you do it.

We also did another  one where you have to lift a hoola hoop up with you fingers all at the same time. These challenges really spoke to me, I saw how others thought, but I never thought that I could  bring my perspective into it. I mostly had an idea, but through a fear of being wrong or it not working I would never try.

This week the Lord and through my brothers and sisters I have really seen what I can bring to the table. This is so much healing to me, because I always had these thoughts but never acted on if we twist the towel and do it in 3 sides we can actually do it a lot faster. We did the towel trick in 47 secs with 6 people Blindfolded which is crazy. God is so good and to see that played out of my team was so amazing. I’m in Awe of what God has done, and continuing to do.

Chloe told me to be whimsy, and I love her and I have really been staying true to being whimsy. I have danced the Salsa in front of everyone during Squad wars. I have been jumping up and down for Jesus, and never had so much fun.

The world is so much better with Dancing and Joy! I have been sick for the last couple days, but I have still been very present, and having the best time. I love my family at home, but also my new found family. I cannot wait for everyone to meet everyone on my team. It so refreshing to be surrounded by brothers and sisters who love the Lord so much.

I love you guys so much and so grateful for the opportunity to share Jesus around the world. Thank you for all the Support and my family the God has brought in my life.

Little update currently in Nairobi now, and We are going to the biggest Slums in Africa today and 3rd largest in the world. Next Blog I will tell you all God is doing in me and through me Love you, and miss you.

Hello, friends! What a beautiful day it is to embrace the adventure that lies ahead! As we gather in this moment, let us remember that each day presents us with the chance to rise, to awaken our spirits, and to embark on our unique faith journeys.

In the midst of our mission trip, I feel a stirring in my heart—a call to rise higher, to reach deeper into the well of God's love. Each encounter we have on this journey is a divine appointment, an opportunity for spiritual growth that shapes us and reveals more of His goodness.

So, let’s take a moment to reflect on what it means to rise. It’s not just about standing tall; it’s about lifting our hearts in gratitude, opening our eyes to the beauty around us, and stepping boldly into the next chapter of our lives. Together, let's rise with hope, faith, and an unwavering commitment to seek God in every encounter along the way.

As I reflect on the countdown that led us to this moment, I can't help but feel a swell of gratitude and excitement. The energy in the air was palpable, filled with anticipation as we prepared for our mission trip. Each number echoed not just a countdown, but a beautiful reminder of the journey we are embarking on together—a journey of faith and purpose.

With every cheer and applause, I was reminded of the incredible encounters with God that await us. Each mission trip is not merely about the work we set out to do; it is a profound opportunity for spiritual growth. As we step into this new chapter, we are invited to deepen our faith and witness the transformative power of love in action.

In the moments that follow, I pray we remain open to the lessons and connections that will shape our hearts. This is not just about the destination but the experiences that will enrich our souls. Let's go forth with hope and an eagerness to embrace all that God has in store for us. Together, we are embarking on a faith journey that promises to be both challenging and rewarding. Let’s make every moment count!As I sit here reflecting on our recent mission trip, I can’t help but feel a deep stirring within my spirit. It’s a gentle reminder that it’s time to rise—to rise to the challenges that lie ahead, to rise in our faith journey, and to embrace the beautiful encounters with God that await us.

Each day on this journey has been a stepping stone toward spiritual growth. The moments shared with others, the heartfelt conversations, and the quiet whispers of His presence have all contributed to a profound awakening within my soul. It’s in these sacred encounters that we truly come alive, igniting a passion to serve and love as He does.

So, as we move forward, let us carry this message in our hearts: it’s time to rise. Rise in hope, rise in faith, and rise in love. Together, we can transform not just our own lives, but the lives of those we encounter along the way. Let’s embrace this call with open arms, ready to witness the incredible things God has in store for us.
