Preparation. Family. Birthdays.

HELLO All!

I am doing great and having so much fun here in South Africa! Lots and lots of preparations are underway for Harvest School 21. A lot of Manual Labor, but I am loving the work! The FootPrints base I am staying at, which is also an Iris base, is an amazing family that really encourages everyone to take initiative on projects and lead, even if they have no prior experience. The kids that live on this base are not orphans, but actually believe they are sons and daughters and act as a family.


Along with all the large amount of Harvest School 21 preparations, I have also been helping cook meals for the entirety of the base, helping take care of the 2 horses that were recently given to the base, teaching P.E class for the kids, and really having a lot of fun with this new family.

I was able to celebrate my 23rd Birthday here in SA and I had an amazing birthday! Prophetic words in the morning, Thai food for supper, Gelato, and a homemade strawberry with lemon icing cake made just for me! I felt so honored and loved.
Looking back on the last several years I have given my life fully to God I am so humbled to be able to say that I have been to 23 nations by the time I turned 23 years of age! That is only God and I can not wait to see where He takes me next!


Soon the rest of the Harvest School staff will arrive, meetings will begin and before we know it students will be arriving on sight! It is crazy to think that in just under three weeks 200 students will be flooding the base and my last Harvest School for a while will be underway!

As I have said in a previous blog this school will look a little different the first two weeks of school we will be in Johannesburg, then we will be moving on north to Nelsperuit for three weeks, and finally home to Pemba for the remainder month of school before we send out our amazing world changers to the many different nations on outreach!

Now I am not paid for what I do and as always, I will have to provide all of my own transport for this School.
Including the outreach to Mississippi, I am leading after school, I will need about $2,500 alone just for travel!
If you feel lead to financially support me in anyway please send me and email or Facebook message me and I will let you know the ways you can support me. Also at the top of my blog page there is a donate button that puts money straight into my paypal account! I am sorry I do not have a tax deductible option at this time, but I am working on one for the future!

I also need spiritual covering! So if you are willing to pray for me and would like a more specific list of things to pray for please email me and I will update you more often on specific prayer requests!

Thank you to all my friends and family who have supported me so much! You and God have gotten me this far and I couldn't be more grateful!

Love & Blessings,
