READ PLEASE!!!!!!

Hi sweet friends,

I just wanted to start this out by saying thank you. This year alone, you have helped me raise around $9,000 dollars and that number will increase more when I am fully funded for CGA. I know I don’t tell you thank you enough. Maybe that’s because I’m not sure I could ever find the words to just simply say how I feel. None of the words I say seem like they exactly explain how grateful I am for you and all you have done. Did you know you are such a gift from the Lord to me? You are so valued. You go to work everyday, the one you either enjoy or the one you despise. Yes, that job is so much more than meeting work criteria, or making the biggest sale of the year. I wish you could be here with me to see the fruits of your labor.

I wish you could feel the love when you walk into the CGA room. The eagerness to learn more about the Father.

 I wish you could hear the loud laughter literally bouncing off the walls at the cabin, the Monday night dinners that we cook, or smell of early morning coffee brewing before we head to school.

I wish you were here to sit in with us in class and see how the lord is teaching us, bringing us into the leader He has called us to be.

I wish you were here to see the tears as they hit the ground and that you could understand the exact place they are coming from.

I wish all these things and so so much more.

But instead, you are living all over the country, fulfilling a calling that you often don’t understand, or even get to see the fruit of right away.

You see every moment you spend at that desk, the factory, the nursing home, allows a missionary like me the moments to impact someone with Kingdom. When I say I couldn’t do this without you, I mean it from every part of me. Every deadline you meet at work is the chance for someone to come to know Christ. Your work, no matter how small it seems, is the work that we as a missionaries were not made to do. The work that we need to help us do our work comes from someone like you. We are all called to different things, but we are all called to love one another and to make disciples across the nations.

I love our partnership. I love the way when I come home to WV, you ask me how im doing. You ask me what I’m learning, how I like my housemates, how classes are going. Just because you care for me and you love seeing how the Lord is moving here in ole Gainesville, Georgia. I love that you had a dream and a vision and you chased after it! Oh how hard you had to work to get to where you are today! The hours you spent studying, the nights you want to give up, YOU ARE A KINGDOM WARRIOR. You are a fulfillment of a calling much greater than yourself! You are the backbone to missionaries like me! And sometimes, I must confess, I wish I could be you. Thank you for doing the hard thing, you are our heroes and our greatest gifts. 

Thank you for saying yes and for loving me well. I   Know I couldn’t do this without you. I am still currently fundraising for CGA, if you would like to help me continue this journey here in GA, you can do so by clicking the donate button at the top of the screen. 

I currently only have around $832 dollars left until I am fully funded and thats all because of YOU! If you want to continually support a local missionary in training, you can do so by clicking the donate button at the top of the screen!!! 

Love you guys. Again, thank you for all you have done for me this past year.
