Now change the world.

I remember entering college wondering if I could make a difference in the world. Now that I'm leaving, the scary thing I've learned is that every action, word, purchase, relationship changes the world, it's just a matter of how.

Our lack of humility is not primarily from too high a view of ourselves, but too low a view of God.

What I've learned is that I matter so much more profoundly to God, every moment is more significant, and God is so much more good, amazing, beautiful, powerful, wise than I ever knew.

Lilies of the Valley


After two successful fundraisers, thanks to the support of many friends, I'm at almost 90%! About $400 left to raise, plus paying for travel immunizations (about $300). 


I never thought I would make it this far! I'm so thankful to God and the people who supported me.

This has been a crazy couple of weeks, with 3 fundraisers, 2 papers, starting finals, travel prep and research! Loving the crazy adventure :). 

Thank you!!!!
