Man makes plans, but God directs the footsteps...





As my time is coming to a close with Teen Mania here this August, I am excited to announce the next step on the journey... I am going to Vienna, Austria for 16 months starting January 2009!

As many of you know, I've been going to school full-time throughout my time at Teen Mania at Bethany College of Missions (BCOM). The next step with BCOM is the global internship, a 16 month overseas voyage where a group of 12 of us students will be working alongside a local missionary family in Vienna. The idea is that what better way to learn about missions than having us get out there and do it!

I am still finding out some of the options for how we will be able to be involved while we are in Vienna. The missionary we'll be with is highly involved with Aids awareness throughout Europe and Africa. His wife is apart of a ministry to sex-traffic victims in downtown Vienna. My dream is to get involved with youth in the art/music scene...


Anyhow, there are many mountains to climb between then and now, so please pray for me if you can!

I will be sending out a hard copy newsletter in the next month explain
ing the details of the adventure but for now here is a picture of team Austria:
