Off to Ecuador!

"For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love be servants of one another." (Galatians 5:13)

Peace and blessings to one and all!

Well, the time has arrived for me to venture off in response to the call on my heart to serve as a missionary nurse. I received the news today that my visa has been granted, and I will be leaving for Ecuador this Saturday with a dear friend, Maribeth, from Franciscan University who will be serving as a missionary social worker.

I will keep this blog as updated as I possibly can with stories, photos, and prayer intentions. Check back every now and again for updates, if you like.

Thank you all for your support in the past few years of my missions during my university years, leading up to this more long-term departure. Thank you for sharing in this mission.

All my love and prayers,
m

  3. I am very happy to hear you have arrived safely. May you continue to love with reckless abandon as you encounter so many, even if only for brief moments. I look forward to hearing more about the work you are doing. I hope you are constantly reminded of God's supremacy in all things. Much love,
    Kate
