Hey everyone, I just wanted to provide a little life update for my awesome supporters, and thank you all for supporting me.  I am fully funded for my 9 month mission!  On Sunday the 11th I arrived in Gainesville, Georgia with my squad, and since then we have been sleeping in hammocks, taking showers by pouring water over our heads out of buckets, and eating some delicious food.  

     After taking the day on Sunday to rest and reflect ahead of this new season, we have spent the last few days bonding as a team, and have been poured into by amazing leaders.  In just 4 days I have learned how essential it is to make sure you are under good leadership, and it is safe to say in this season of life, I am being led by very anointed, faithful, and passionate leaders. 

     A common question I find myself asking my leaders is "What fuels your passion to lead others in a time like this."  More often than not the answer to that question is along the lines of "I am passionate about seeing the Lord change lives."  

     What sticks out to me about their answers is that these people are aware they are not capable of changing lives, but when they submit to and partner with our Father he will work through them and in them.  They make the conscious decision to walk with God every day and choose Him.

     One thing one of my leaders has taught me is that there is no limit to your relational intimacy with God.  For so long I experienced the Lord thinking there is no way me and Him can go deeper.  However, I am quickly learning that is not the case at all.  There is no limit to how deep we can experience God's love, faithfulness, joy, and peace. 

     Thank you for your support and continued prayers more updates will be coming soon!
