Honduras

After much discernment and processing, I am off to Honduras!


On August 21st (about 3 weeks away now eeeeek!!), I will board my airplane to Tegucigalpa, Honduras and continue on to my new home for 10 months in Juticalpa, Olancho. I can't believe it!

Just 6 weeks ago today I left Boston, which was the most wonderful experience! I am so lucky to have had the opportunity to go to Boston--to live in community, teach, serve, grow in my faith, live simply, and make such strong relationships. And now it's crazy to think that I am once again so lucky to participate in yet another amazing opportunity!

I know that this experience will help to fulfill my original 4th grade dream of volunteering in another country. I know that this experience will challenge me in many new ways and that ultimately I will grow in my faith and as a person. I am nervous and excited to see where God takes and how God challenges me as I serve and learn in Honduras. I am so grateful for this opportunity, which wouldn't be possible without all of the prayers, love, and support from my family and friends. I cannot thank each of you enough for all of the support you constantly provide me!

As I venture off to Honduras, I hope to help share my journey with each of you through my words, pictures, and videos. So, I hope you continue to check back for updates! While I may be far away, each of you will remain very close to me and in my constant thoughts and prayers. As I get ready to leave, I'd like to ask each of you to do the same for me. I know that this is going to be an amazing journey, but I also know that this will be a journey full of growth, learning, and challenges; and so, I'd like to ask each of you for prayers and continued support along the way. Many blessings and love always!
