Friends and family!!!
I am overjoyed to share that I’m stepping into a 5.5-month Bible School of the Nations (BSN) course designed to build a strong biblical foundation and deepen my relationship with God! Through studying the Bible chronologically, I will gain a clearer understanding of His character, His plans throughout history, and how His Word applies to both my life and the world around me. I will also be trained in practical tools to study Scripture, understand difficult passages, and confidently teach and share God’s Word with others. For two of the 5.5 months, I will be equipping and discipling communities with limited access to biblical training and sharing the love of Christ! GO JESUS!!!
More than anything, this season is about following the calling Christ has placed on my life :). During my DTS, I felt God clearly leading me toward a future in trauma therapy. As I began looking into colleges, nothing seemed to align and I felt a growing uneasiness. When I brought this to the Lord, He gently asked me to wait and trust Him with my next steps, showing me that before stepping into a career of helping others heal, He wanted to first deepen my own healing and root me firmly in His truth, character, and love. At the same time, God kept highlighting “New Zealand” in conversations, prayer, and even what I was reading.
When my DTS leaders shared about BSN, I felt supernatural peace and a desire to attend. Soon after, He gave me a vision that later matched exactly with images of the NZ base, bringing overwhelming joy and confirmation!! Even through other opportunities, God reminded me of Nehemiah, who left comfort to follow where the Lord was leading, and I knew He was asking me to do the same. God is so good!
My heart in this is simple: to spend intentional time with the Lord, grow in relationship with Him, and be deeply grounded in His Word before pursuing a career in trauma therapy, knowing this foundation is essential for all He is calling me into.
I am trusting in the Lord's provision in finances for $11,105. If you feel led to give and want to bless and be blessed, this is such a beautiful way to do that! If you choose to partner with me, you’re not just supporting me in physically going to be the hands and feet of Jesus–you’re coming alongside me so that, together, we can make an impact for God’s Kingdom! LET’S GO!!!
Lives will be touched, hope will be restored, and, most importantly, people will see that there is a God who deeply loves, cherishes, and adores them–a God who gave His life for them so they can walk in true hope, joy, and knowing they have a purpose and a future!!! PRAISE JESUS!!!!!
