A little TLC


Rain boots & tea, isn't that all a girl ever needs? 
So I thought.
Until I realized- I needed more.
More Jesus, more love.
A little TLC. 
Maybe it involved some blankets, 
some additional tea,
but what really made this day so special 
was it just being all about Jesus and me. 

Life is crazy and at times can be a whirl wind, 
but learning when to settle down 
and take a step back is well, 
truly a God send. 

Autumn here is beautiful,
this I am thankful for. 
Rain or shy the day will go on, 
but I ask myself today- 
is rain boots and tea all a girl ever needs?

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...

This last week was spent in Indiana training with Experience Mission. First off Fort Wayne Indiana is beautiful and I could totally see myself returning at some point. The training was not only essential before leaving but has already given me the opportunity to be challenged in new ways. Whether it was learning about cross cultural differences or acknowledging topics such as hope and dignity it was needed. This was also the first time I met my team, and already it is clear God is at work. We're all coming from very different places, but with a common compassion of wanting to be there to help others and individually grow. It is so easy in a materialistic world were resources can be abundant and we are taught to pick up our phones to complain before even trying to independently problem solve. God far too often takes the back burner. Being able to leave with little communication and limited resources will give us the room to grow in areas in our lives we may have previously been un...

Flat Stanley Presentation By: Lilly Gelinas

          So so proud of Lilly for presenting such a great project. Back in April she asked me to take Flat Stanley along with me to Costa Rica. Today was the day she has been waiting for! Not only did she learn a great deal, but she also blessed me so much! She shared about Flat Stanley's journey from the animals he saw, and what it was living living in a small community.The best story of all though was when she shared how Jesus had healed an elderly lady in the streets of San Jose who suffered for years with knee pain. This girl rocked her project, literally out of America! #suchajoy
