It's Almost Time!!

Hello friends!

In a very short ten days I will be arriving in El Paso to begin training camp for my summer mission trip to Romania! Each of you played a significant part in making this happen, and I can not thank you enough. God has used you as a tool to fulfill part of his plan for my life, and I am so excited to go and serve Him! I will be updating this blog at least once a week (hopefully- haha) during my trip. I look forward to sharing my experiences and God's accomplishments with you throughout. Thank you for making this a possibility for me! My motivation for this summer is 1 Corinthians 13:1-3:

If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor, and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.

I believe that our purpose on this earth is to show the love of God to others, and I believe that goal should be the sole motivation of every single thing we do in life. Nothing that I do matters, if done without the love of God. My prayer is to be God's love to those I meet, and I ask that it be your prayer as well.

Thank you so much!

Kristen
