So I spent January and February in Thailand, it was an amazing and challenging time and I really learned so so much! We got back from Thailand on February 28, and spent the next week speaking at churches and debriefing outreach as well as reuniting with the team who went to Cambodia! The DTS graduated on March 9, it was a beautiful day of celebrating all that God did in and through each of the students, and we were all very proud to see them finish out! So we were left with a quiet house once again, but only for about a week because we started our spring DTS on March 17! It's an amazing school of 12 students who just want to grow closer to the Lord and they are such a great group! We are also about to start our WISE school in about a week, so it has been busy times of preparing and then starting schools, but it has been great!

It is such an exciting and scary journey! You wouldn't think it would be scary to go home, but my life has totally changed since I left Calgary and I don't really know what to expect out of it all, but I do know God has called me! Not only is it crazy to go home, it's crazy to leave YWAM Charlotte, leave my second family and my incredible friends! Basically everything is changing and this kid is not the biggest fan of change, but I am holding onto God's faithfulness in all of it!
So obviously because I am leaving in a couple weeks, I'm not staffing either of the schools, but I am staying to help out wherever I can! This in itself has been a weird transition because I've always been staffing the schools that we've had. It's been great though because I have had time to just process my last couple of years here as well as spending time investing in relationships here!

I am going to miss this place more than I could ever express, but I am also so excited to continue on this journey that the Lord has for me! He is faithful and He is good. PRAISE!
