Greetings from Thailand!
I hope everyone had a good Valentine’s Day! There’s nothing better than the love that God has for us. Let’s share that love with the world continuously! In this new year, I pray we, together, will continue to be a light in the world for Jesus, shining for Him. I love each and every one of you. Thank you for your continued support throughout this past year and the support to come in this new year.
**Special Note: If you are subscribed to my emails, or receiving my newsletter, and don’t yet support me monthly but have a desire to support me monthly, please let me know! Or maybe you know of someone who has a desire to give towards missions! Remember, it is because of your prayers and financial support that I have transitioned to the field. Thank you to every person. You are important! I am thankful for you!

A Little About Me:
If you are new to this newsletter, here is a little about me:
The Lord called me to missions as a young child. He has called me to serve others! That calling led me to Holmes Bible College where I graduated in 2020, and then to serve as a houseparent at Falcon Children’s Home and then as a caregiver in Myrtle Beach. The Lord has shown me that I am called to work with every age and to serve Him in any way possible! I am currently living in Bangkok, Thailand, working under career missionaries Albert and Jiep Gonzales. Here, I am working within the community, teaching English on the weekends, and helping in the church with the youth and children’s ministry.
Thank you all so much for being a part of the ministry that God has called me to do and planting seeds that will be fruitful and save lives! Thanks to your prayers and donations, many people will come to know Christ and have the resources they need to learn more about Him!
