The book’s not finished…
A chapter is ending but the book’s not finished. It has been one week. One week since I moved back to the states from the beautiful country of Honduras. It had been something anticipated and known, but that really doesn’t make it any easier. Saying goodbye is never easy especially when those people have made […]
Precious in His eyes
You matter. You belong. You are valuable. You are loved. You are wanted. How often do we want to hear those words? How often do we crave even the smallest encouragement that tells us we matter? I think everyone at some point can relate to that in some way, that wanting to be seen and […]
New Seasons Bring New Ideas
“I can do all this through him who gives me strength.” Philippians 4:13 “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9 “You are my friends if you do what I […]
Demonstrating El Roi
Being able to spend time and disciple girls in the Bordos community and local children’s homes is such a blessing. Getting to build relationships with my girls on a personal level while teaching them God’s truth is something I love to do and is so rewarding. But I would be lying if I said it […]

Ready Set……Wait
Sometimes God says wait. Wait for My timing and just trust. This past week I have been getting settled into San Pedro Sula, finding my way around the city and….waiting. When I finished language school, I was so excited to get to San Pedro and actually get started doing what we had planned to do. […]
Embracing Uncertainity
Today begins my last week of language school (where did the last 9 months go?). It has been fun to look back on my time here and all God has done, while also looking forward to what I lies ahead for me as I move to San Pedro Sula next week. I am very excited […]
Love, Listen, and Encourage
This past week I was visiting a dear friend, whom I see regularly. She is such a precious and sweet girl and spending time with her has been such a blessing to me. Because of the language barrier, it has taken almost the whole time I’ve been in Honduras to actually get to know her. […]
Simply Seeking the Lord
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways…” I had read this verse so many times before, but it has been becoming much more real to me since moving to Honduras last July. I had expectations of time frames, of life in a different culture, and of speaking a different […]
