My ministry started <\/span>when I was 14. I have always loved kids, and so I volunteered to teach a Sunday School Class<\/span>. I soon became the 2 &3 year old’s teacher and taught them for SIX<\/span> years<\/span>. I have many wonderful stories about the kids that I taught, and loved being with them every Sunday morning. <\/p>\n

\tThe reason that I quit teaching was because I was going to New Tribes Bible Institute<\/span>. This was the first stage in training to become a Missionary. The school was in Wisconsin. This was my first <\/span>move away from home and a hard<\/span> one to make. I do not know if I would have made it without the hand of God on my shoulder giving me strength. My first year was really tough with learning how to get alone with a bunch of girls, after only growing up with two brothers. But God saw that I got through it. <\/p>\n

\tDuring that summer I took a short term missions trip into Brazil.<\/span> We went to build a school in a native village. God completely led the way down there, and that is where my heart has stayed. I loved it down there, being with the people<\/span>, the culture<\/span>, and hope<\/span><\/span> to return someday.<\/p>\n

\tWhen I was in Wisconsin, I helped out at the Milwaukee Rescue Center<\/span>. There I helped to tutor children that lived in the area, or lived at the center. It was really fulfilling to help out the kids<\/span>. It was also hard to say good bye to the ones that I had gotten to know on a personal level. <\/p>\n

\tNow I am in Missouri. I am at the Mission Training Center <\/span>working on the last of my training to be a missionary. While I am here, I help out in Young Life<\/span>. It is teen program for the High School Student where I am at. We meet on Wednesdays together for fun and fellowship<\/span><\/span>. We also try to make it to games, and other actives that the kids participate in. We hope to start up a girls Bible study on Sundays. So if you would pray for that to work out, and for the girls to want to come that would be great. <\/p>\n

\tMy over all goal is to be a tribal<\/span> Missionary in Brazil<\/span>. All of the things that I am doing here in the states help to prepare me for my over all goal. Thank you for you interest in the things that I am doing. You too are a part for helping me reach <\/span>that overall goal.<\/p>\n
