So many emotions are filling me up right now and i think you guys can all relate. I am SO excited to meet all of you, im excited to go to Kenya and see what God has in store for me, you, and the people in Kenya. I guess im just really excited to see some beautiful people with amazing stories. I'm also really nervous for so many things. money, health, safety...but then theres God so that changes things. Hes pretty awesome so i know i dont have anything to worry about,...but im human so i have my tendencies to get nervous. The list of emotions goes on and on.

    So heres a little about myself. I just graduated highschool in the spring. Im also a youngin, i just turned 18. Im100% romanian but dont ask me to speak the language because i barely know it. I have a 19 year old brother, 15 year old sister, and a 12 year old brother. I love my family so much and they mean so much to me. I also have 6 really close friends. I love them and i tell them everything. They are all my accountability partners and I am really blessed to have them in my life. They are my second family.

(Im all the way to the right)

  I wanted to take a year off of school and at first i thought of just getting a job to save up some money. But my mind was changed one summer day. I was just laying down watching t.v. being bored....then Africa just slapped me in the face. haha well it did! I went to my computer and did research on missions trips and found AIM. Iv'd been on a mission trip to Mexico and i had the greatest experience of my life. I fell in love with the kids there and i heard some great stories and made some great stories of my own. I was also a counselor at a camp this summer and i can't tell you how much i fell in love with these kids! Being able to share my testimony with them and having one on one talks with these girls were the best things i did that summer. We learned that year in camp that God has a story for our lives and we need to let Him be the writer of our story. Isn't that awesome?! I cant wait for the new chapter in my story that I will be sharing with all of you.

            I can go on and on about how excited I am. I cant wait to meet all of you!

      God Bless all of you :) I'll be praying
