Hawaii

I can't believe I'm going back to Hawaii in 3 weeks...I can't wait! Thank you Lord!

Family, old friends, beach, sand, sun, palm trees, shave ice, surfing, 80 degree weather, ono grindz, relaxing in paradise...

It's been 2 years since I've been back...summer 2010. It's crazy how the years fly by. I am so thankful to spend time with Mom, Dad, and Puppers for Thanksgiving. After living in London for a year and exploring the world, there's really no place like home.

SYTE




SYTE. Serving Youth on The Eastside.

I'm excited to take on this new role of Youth Ministry Director Intern! A new adventure. :) I used to be in the youth group when I was 12 years old...Pastor Wayne baptized me and now he's my mentor! During youth, I was apart of the first SYTE band and played drums and guitar...now there's SYTE Band 3G (3rd generation). I look forward to giving back to the youth group that helped my faith grow and mature over the years. I'm still best friends with some of the friends I knew 10 years ago. I pray I will develop close relationships with the other SYTE advisors, get to know each of the youth, and God will use me in ways I never could have imagined.

"Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity." -1 Timothy 4:12

This is my prayer-that I will set an example in speech, love, faith, and purity.
