A letter to God dear Godthank you so much for this time in Swaziland and thank you for these amazing people that have already became my family. Our time in swazi has been incredible and very full of your lessons, laughs and love. You have shown me love in its purest form with all the people that we have ministered to and you have shown me simplicity as a way of life. Yesterday coming home from ministry driving through the bushes the sun was going down and I saw first hand your light shine through all darkness and you lit up the sky and this truly doesn’t describe the beauty that I witnessed...

I’ll be honest, on this trip I’ve really missed the people I love. I miss my parents like crazy, I miss my friends, I really miss my beautiful girlfriend, and I even miss my brothers! My home church is currently reading through the Bible in a year,and I’ve gotten a little ahead of the church as a whole. Since I’ve been in Africa, I’ve finished all the Gospels and I’m currently in Acts. Through my reading I’ve made an important discovery. The discovery is this: the greatest power that exists on Earth is prayer. The same power...

7/7/19– Hi! Wow, what an amazing experience. I seriously could not have been more blessed with this team. I have been praying and I’ve been really nervous about group dynamic. However, this team is better than I could have ever imagined! Our leaders and teammates are so funny, loving, outgoing, kind, and love Jesus. I have had the time of my life here, and I’m not sure why I was so nervous. It is only the third day we’ve been here, and yet the relationships with my team are growing each day and I have already made so many memories! Everyone is wonderful, and the...

7/7/19– Hi friends and family! I am so excited to share with you the experiences I have had with my team the past few days since we have arrived in this amazing country. Not only have I grown closer to each and every member of this incredible team, but I have also grown to love the unique culture of the Siswati people. Even though I have only been here for a few days, everyone I have met whether in the market or at gatherings has been welcoming and joyful. Yesterday, we spent the day ministering in the Manzini market. Our team was able to begin building relationships with locals...

Swazi parents I want to say right off the bat, I LOVE your kids!! Your kids are truly amazing, they are teaching me so much and they are inspiring me every day. Our team has grown close together so fast, its so hard to imagine that we only met a week ago. I find comfort, peace and a direct connection with God within my new family.  To the parents of Sydney Sydney’s joy is contagious and whenever I look at her, I see Jesus. She is so loving, sweet and adorable. She is teaching me to be joyful in everything that I do and to spread love wherever I go. Sydney...
