Why are you going on this trip?
I have never been on a missions trip and have had a desire to go for a while. I missed the opportunity to go on a trip to Mexico so when Ryan mentioned Mission Ireland, I jumped on the opportunity.
What is your favorite Bible verse?
Isaiah 43:1
What is something interesting about you?
I still have a baby tooth.
What is a favorite childhood memory that you have?
My favorite childhood memory would probably be playing in the pool at the house I grew up in. I had just seen Pirates of the Caribbean so, of course, I would always play pirates in the pool. ps. I can almost quote the whole movie.
When did you give your life to the Lord and how?
Well I accepted Christ into my heart when I was very young. I remember going to work with my dad and saying the prayer with him. However, I did not fully give my life to him until the fall of 2016. I was tired of seeking after the flesh and realized how far it had taken me away from Christ. God used my pain to bring me back to Himself and has been working in me ever since.
How do you want to be used/how do you anticipate being used on this trip?
I don’t really know what to expect but I just want to be used in any way possible.
Prayer Request:
In Ephesians 3:14-19 Paul writes:
"For this reason I kneel before the Father from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named. I pray that he may grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with power in your inner being through his Spirit, and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. I pray that you, being rooted and firmly established in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the length and width, height and depth of God’s love, and to know Christ’s love that surpasses knowledge, so that you may be filled with all the fullness of God."
My prayer for this mission would be that the people we come in contact with would feel the love of Christ in us. That they would be established and rooted in love and would know the love of God that surpasses understanding. That through these things they would know the fullness of God.
