“Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage,
and the ends of the earth your possession.” -Psalms 2:8



Friends & Family,


I couldn’t have more joy, excitement, and awesome expectation as I write this! In August of 2008 I fell in head over heels in love with Jesus and decided to totally live my life for him. It was and is the best decision I’ve ever made, and I haven’t looked back since. The Lord has given me such a heart for missions, orphans, widows (James 1:27), and to preach the gospel to the ends of the earth (Matthew 28:19).
The Lord was very specific with me that I was to wait until after I graduate from college before I was to travel internationally. The six year wait has been one of much preparation and eagerness. However I am ecstatic to announce that September 26th 2014 I’ll be graduating with honors with my nursing degree. Very shortly after on October 12th 2014 I have been given the opportunity to go to the nation God has set my heart ablaze for…Africa!
My church- The Father’s House International- is stationed in Henderson, Kentucky. It has created and sustained a feeding station and has developed several divine connections in the country of Zimbabwe. I can honestly say ever since I was a child I have desired to go to Africa. God promises that if we delight ourselves in Him then He will give us the desires of our hearts (Psalms 37:4).
I can confidently say that this mission trip to Zimbabwe is a door that the Lord has opened, and it is for the glory of His kingdom and in His time. I always say, “If it’s His will then it’s His bill.” I know that the Lord will make provision in regards to finances and prayer according to His will. Therefore, all I ask is that you would be obedient to the Lord if He speaks to you about further advancing His kingdom through this opportunity. This isn’t just about finances but I earnestly ask for your pledge of prayer. D.L. Moody said this, “Prayer doesn’t prepare us for the greater work. Prayer IS the greater work.”
With all of that being said, I ask that you prayerfully consider supporting me on this journey as I follow the leading of the Holy Spirit. I believe He has a very specific and divine plan for me as I step out and begin taking the nations for Him.

I thank and bless each of you with all my heart.
