What's Next

Hello! Well I have not done very well at keeping this blog updated but that is about to change! So keep your eye on this for updates! 

Some of you may be asking.....What's next for me? Here is a brief update of what I am doing now and what I will be pursuing next:

Right now I am a ministry intern at the College I just graduated from. My official title is the Global Internship Assistant. Now for those of you who may now just began following me here is a description of what Global Internship is:

The purpose of Global Internship is for students to become truly intercultural (defined as being able to comfortably move between two or more cultures). The goal is accomplished by providing a holistic experience encompassing formal and experiential learning, research, reflection, interaction with other students and practical ministry application for maximized learning. 

The ministry emphasis of Global Internship, primarily focused on church-planting, provides opportunities for students to gain experiences in leading Bible Studies, preaching, teaching, discipleship, friendship evangelism, child and youth ministry, TESOL, relief and development, meeting physical and social needs, and more. 

Through Global Internship students observe and engage in missionary life firsthand, applying knowledge gained in the classroom to life experience, and bringing life experience back into the classroom. Global Interns develop skills for working collaboratively in the context of ministry teams. They grow deeper in trust and reliance on God. They explore God's leading for future direction as they discover and develop the gifts He has given them.

As the Global Internship Assistant I help on the logistical side of things as well as staying in touch with the interns on the field. Making myself available if they ever need to talk or have questions that I can help them with. Something that I loved when I was the intern! 

Now on top of being the Global Internship Assistant I am also starting the process of becoming a full-time missionary with Bethany International Ministries. 

"Bethany International Ministries is called to send servant leaders into the world. We are burdened for the least reached and desire to see a reproducing church planted in these areas. We recognize the need to mobilize the church around the world to join in this task."
I am hoping to return to Thailand in the next year or so! Exactly what I will be doing I am still praying about, but I trust the Lord to reveal that in time! 

In this season though I do need finances to continue to do what the Lord is asking me to do in this season. If you will feel the Lord leading you to give here is my contact information:
