  You know, for as long as I can remember I’ve loved a good cup of coffee in an air conditioned building with Bible in hand. What sweet times with Jesus those always are. Now as I’m sure most of you know, Starbucks and AC don’t aren’t a readily available commodity over here in India. I think the Lord has taught me something huge in this. He’s teaching me that worshiping in the sweltering heat can be even MORE sweet than in an air conditioned building.    I’ve always thought that I knew this. I’ve always thought, “Well hey, I...

When you step out of America and into the third world, things that were once easy become a bit more…challenging. Finding toilet paper becomes an ordeal when the country you’re in doesn’t use it, clean drinking water has to be brought in, and internet is scarce.

Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know we are in India and doing great! We’ve spent the last couple days getting settled at our apartment and our ministry, getting to know the area, and playing with the most precious boys you’ve ever seen.   I’m posting this from an internet stick I am borrowing as we are still searching for internet, but expect blogs from each of the girls within the next few days!   Thank you for your prayers for us. Excited to share pictures and stories soon!

Thanks for all the prayers for this team! The Passport field support team

Our first meal as a team, we were already laughing to the point of tears, and I knew this group of women is divinely appointed. Of the 6 college students and 1 team leader that make up our team, I am the youngest, and I celebrated my 20th birthday on June 2. My team made the day so special. From the time I woke up with balloons on my bed, to sharing a delicious birthday cake under the tent we constructed that night, my sweet teammates did their best to make the first day of my twenties memorable. Although we are each from a different state and have a different sum of experiences that make...
