Most of you know that I have spent the past two summers overseas, but since returning home last summer, God placed it on my heart to do something different. After praying about it, talking with some people about camp, and just waiting and listening to God, I felt called to apply for CentriKid camps. Although it was weird for me at first to not go through the application and interview process for summer missions, I felt peace because I knew that God had different plans for me this summer.
In 15 days (well, 14 and a few hours), I will be headed to training and then we will start camp at Anderson University in South Carolina. I will be serving alongside about 30 college-age staffers and sharing the Gospel with both children and adults every day at camp. I am so excited to meet the people I will be spending the summer with and dive into camp with each of them.
The biggest thing that I could ask from all of you is your prayers. Pray that my team and I will develop a strong bond and become like family. Pray that the children and adults' hearts will be softened and will be prepared to hear the Gospel and possibly learn something new. Pray for our energy and our excitement and just that God will be glorified through every aspect of camp. I cannot wait to share with you how God works at Anderson University this summer!
There is absolutely no way that any of this could even be possible if it weren't for God's faithfulness and sovereignty, but also through prayer and encouragement. I invite you to be a prayer warrior for this summer, not only for where I will be serving, but for all over the world.
I will be able to receive mail while I'm gone June 17-July 19. If you would like to send an encouraging note, snacks, or any other type of encouragement for my team and me, that would be awesome!
My address is:

Thank you so much and I hope you all have a wonderful summer!
