Hi There!
After serving as an intern on the Northern coast of the Dominican Republic during the summer of 2019, the beautiful people, place, and culture have continuously been on my heart. When looking back on every experience and interaction here, the same word pops up in my head each time: JOY.
I saw joy in people's eyes, even through the challenges they faced in life. I saw joy on the children's' faces as they welcomed me into their classroom and asked me to play with them out in the grass field. I saw joy as friends shared their testimonies of God's grace. I saw true joy in so many situations; the kind God promises us for eternity.
I am so filled with joy as I prepare for this journey the Lord is calling me on with Kids Alive International, a nonprofit, Christian organization. They focus specifically on helping at-risk children in 12 countries around the world. I have always had a passion for working with children and educating young minds, and am looking forward to serving the Lord, community, staff, and children of this small school.
In order to do so, I must raise my support to live on for these first two years. This will fund travel expenses, living expenses, and pre-field learning experiences. Please consider supporting my fundraising process and wearing your own "Count it all joy" t-shirt!
"Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds."
James 1:2
