South Africa, Here I Come!

Hey everyone!
Before I forget, I must publicly admit that I am probably the worst journaler that ever existed. I am, therefore, making no promises concerning the frequency of posts on this blog. I sincerely apologize.
That being said, I have been encouraged to begin a blog to inform everyone about my trip to South Africa this summer. I will be staying in Kokstad, South Africa for 6 weeks, beginning July 16th and ending August 28th. My good friend, Nicole, and I will be working with the Brittingham's (a missionary couple from our church) and the local church in Kokstad to serve the people of South Africa!
Africa is a place that has been on my heart since I was probably 7 years old. I had always planned to go to Africa one day and serve the African people in whatever way God felt best. I am so excited that God has opened up the doors to this amazing opportunity!
Thank you all for coming along side me in this exciting time in my life! I would so appreciate your prayers in these next few months. Please pray specifically that my heart would be in the right place in the coming months and that God would work out the finances of the trip in His will. Thank you so much for your support! I will try my best to keep this blog updated as I find out more details.
