Overwhelming Joy..

As most of you know last Monday I left for Africa.
It is so hard for me to put words to the emotions that I am overwhelmed with.
Thank you Jesus for this opportunity for me to travel across the world to live out
James 1:27.

While I was there we helped, loved on, and fed widows and orphans.
God wrecked me all during my short time there.
And I know for a fact I will be back very soon..
hopefully for good!

On Friday Sept 28th, I got to meet my sponsor child.
A few months after we started our sponsorship,
 I had a dream that I got to meet her and just play and love on her.
And for that dream to come true means so much.
God is so good!
She is beautiful in every way possible. And I am so blessed to call her my sponsor child.
Though she was shy when we first met, hearing her tell me how much she loved me
and how happy she was that I was there made me feel good about sponsoring her.
We made cards for each other, danced, made videos to send back home,made funny faces, but most of all just loved on each other and shared lots and lots of laughs.
It broke my heart as I was telling her bye.
It was one of the hardest things I've ever done.
But I know one day soon I will see her again.

So to Every. Single. Person. 
who donated money,bought a headband, a brownie, or a bracelet from me
Thank YOU!!!
I couldn't have gotten there with out each of you.
I am forever grateful

Well guys I leave 
TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!

I'm so excited and can't wait to come back and blog all the amazing stories that will happen.

Last week we got a phone call from Mission of Mercy,
they told us that our sponsor child's dad passed away.
Please pray for her and that I will be able to meet her while I'm there.
She is being taken care of by her step mom and all of her siblings are sponsored so they are being taken
care of(thank God) but I feel so sad for them.
They are all so young.
I can't imagine losing one of my parents at the age I am now much less being 5yrs old.

So yeah please keep her and her family in your prayers<3


Love you all!
