One year ago I was assured that I would never lead youth again, never leave my comfort zone, and most definitely never go to Africa. Ever.
Days, weeks, and seasons passed and with every passing day I became more interested in seeing the world through a different lens. Somewhere along the lines, my heart ached for change. Not simply change for those who were lost—but change of my own heart and mind.
Comfortability didn’t matter as much as taking risks. Routine became painfully monotonous. Never was a word slowing disappearing from my vocabulary.
One year later I’m preparing to travel to the other side of the world. I believe God is going to do big things IN the city of Nairobi, Kenya. Better yet, I believe God is going to do impossible things… things I’ve never dreamed of in my life.
I’m terrified to believe such a bold statement, but this fear is propelling me to take a risk. A huge risk. On Friday, June 25th, our team of 24 (16 students, 8 adults) from different backgrounds, different stories, and different countries will come together to see lives changed forever. Half of us are from California, the other half are from Kenya, but together we’ll learn more about each other and the God we serve.
In ten short days we will:
- Build latrines for those without sanitation
- Empower and educate girls who have no future
- Share hope to those who are living in dire conditions
- Impact the next generation of Kenyan leaders by reaching local schools
In addition to this I’ve been given the opportunity to share twice while in Nairobi (once at Mavuno Church and again at a local high school outreach). This is the first time I’ll share outside American boarders!
More than anything, I want my heart to break for those are living in financial, emotional, or spiritual poverty. As a living witness of the transforming work of the gospel in Africa, I want to come back and share what I’ve seen so it’s contagious. I’m anticipating my worldview to be rocked. In turn, I intend to rock others view of the world! 🙂
I’m inviting anyone to join in this journey with the team and I. We are heading into an environment we have never been in before. We solicit your prayers and welcome you to join us as we blog and vlog our daily experiences.
Part of the process is fundraising 100% of our funds. I’m taking a step of faith and believing the funds will continue to come in through the remaining days. If you would like to follow the journey or donate, click on this website for a sneak peek!

It will be interesting to see how severely this school of phishermen will be punished. In 2005, a UK pair of electronic anglers were sentenced–one for six years, the other for four–for laundering $10.3 million in today’s U.S. dollars for their felonious endeavors. In 2008, a West Haven, Conn. man was hit with a seven year prison sentence for bilking $400,000 from AOL uses with a phishing scam. And earlier this year, a Minneapolis judge slapped a phisher with an 8.5 year expense free vacation in the Big House for a phishing con that garnered the perp $700,000 over a seven year period. Although sentencing appears to be all over the board, I can’t see the members of this crew getting–at least in the United States–less than eight years a piece for their crooked behavior.

Thanks for the write-up. My spouse and i have always seen that the majority of people are desirous to lose weight as they wish to look slim and attractive. On the other hand, they do not generally realize that there are additional benefits to losing weight as well.

The great news is that people who’re overweight in addition to suffering from a variety of diseases are able to reduce the severity of their illnesses by simply losing weight. It’s possible to see a steady but noted improvement in health when even a bit of a amount of weight loss is attained.
