Six years ago, sitting in math class, I received my calling to work overseas in East Africa. At this time I didn't know the Lord, but a passion for the East African region was rooted in me. After devoting my life to the Lord about a year later, I couldn't shake the feeling that I needed to spend extended amounts of time in Africa, but I didn't yet know how I would do that or what I would do. Fast-forward four years to the Passion Conference in Atlanta, and I was given the answer. During worship, God gave me the clearest command I have ever received. In that moment, the Lord called me to become a nurse for the purpose of aiding in healthcare development in East Africa. Despite this clear calling, I have never been able to go overseas on a mission trip until now. I can't wait for this opportunity to experience what God has planned for the rest of my life and to finally meet the Sozo child I have had the blessing of sponsoring. Even though I haven't met Solomon yet, the blessing of Skype has allowed us to become close friends, and I can't wait to share some special moments with him. As I embark on this call to missions in East Africa, I am in need of a lot of prayer and financial support. Please be in prayer for the people of Uganda to have open hearts to the Gospel and for everybody on the team to be able to effectively live out and share the Gospel of Jesus. Thank you for your support!
