Introducing myself :)



 

Welcome all to my new blog! My name is Mariah Dufour and I have been called to spread the love of Jesus everywhere I go.  A daughter of Christ I am, brought forth into this broken world to share the good news. I have chosen to win the battle by declaring that I will choose to think and act not on thoughts that are of mine but that of the heavenly Father. I am a sinner saved by GRACE, & I have the best Father in the world! 

I love to help those who are less fortunate and traveling is where my heart is.  Currently I am in HS and I am also taking extra classes to become a nursing assistant. My goal is to one day become a national medical assistant so I can travel wherever it is the Lord sends me. 

I decided to start this blog in hopes of sharing where it is I am at, how you can help and get involved and just a way to simply brighten your day!

Washington vs. Whittier middle School

             The girls were anxious to begin the trip, but now as the first night comes to a close it's widely known that everyone is exhausted.  Red in the face (from the sun of course), grumpy by all mean and just plain tired.  Getting accustomed to a new area is always difficult, but with the humid heat and little experience in the area, maps of all colors became our new best friend.  Water bottles in hand, pins hanging from all the girls necks and the race was on.  Here at NHD boys and girls all over the world find common ground very quickly when it comes first to their passion of history and second get as many new pins from as many new places as possible.  Kids literally sigh when they realize the state you're from is already shown on their cord.               The speaker was amazing; a former NHD contestant herself she knew the drills; from research to traveling tips.  Ye...

Hello again! Long time no talk?

             Updating my blog often is not as habitual as I would like, however here I am given a quick catch up.  On June 8th, 2014 I graduated from Poland Regional High school and let me just say it was quite a relief to finally be done these last four years.  It was like that of a marathon, the last leg of the race that seemed to continue on forever. I'd been impatient with life for who knew where I was going, or where the heck I'd even end up.  The last month of high school was one of the most challenging, but with a few close friends tightly by my side I made it through.             "Don't wish away high school, when you're finished you'll want to go back. Experience it all."  Advice I heard continuously from elders, much wiser for a reason.  Yet as I finished my last real day of high school emotions ran high.  Four years of ups and downs, highs and lows that seemed to feel like a r...

Costa Rica

 In February of 2012 I had an amazing opportunity to travel to Los Anonos, Costa Rica for my first mission trip.  God changed my heart here.  For 10 days a group of us from the Mechanic Falls Vineyard traveled done to love on those in the community. Together a lot was achieved. Hand in hang with the youth there we held an eye glass clinic in Jasmine (my personal favorite part of the trip) & also the males from our group went and played futbol with men in a rehab program.  In addition we were involved in prayer walks, youth group and the regular Sunday service. I love everything about the Latin America culture. God's spirit flowed through this community, it was so peaceful unlike any other place I had ever been. My heart truly longs to be back in Costa Rica with these people whom I connected so well with.  Here are just a few pictures of the views and houses of people.
