International Ministry
Uganda 2021
From December 2021 - January 2022, I traveled to Uganda with a group of friends. The team visited Busambu Quality Junior School in Busambu and participated in a Children's Day there. We also visited Show Mercy International in Wakiso where we participated in outreach, home visits with the elderly, farming and gardening, and youth ministry.
India 2018
in 2018 a lifelong dream came true when I (finally) traveled to India! With this team from World Orphans, I participated in ministry visits to orphan homes that were facilitated by the church. The church in India has since moved to a home-based care model that places children in families rather than orphanages!
Honduras 2010
In 2010, I joined a team from Kentucky Mountain Bible College with World Gospel Mission to Escuela El Sembrador (The School of the Sower) in Catacamas, Honduras. The team participated in outreach and ministry in the community and also helped renovate the seminary classrooms on the school's grounds.
Ethiopia 2019
In 2019 I traveled to Ethiopia with World Orphans and fell in love with Africa! The team participated in VBS style outreach to the children in the WO child programs and connected with their families and caregivers.
Ukraine 2012
In 2012, I lead a team from KMBC with World Gospel Mission to Berdyansk, Ukraine. The team participated in after-school outreach, home visits, and a work project for the church.
Mexico 2006
My first international trip was with the Church of the Nazarene to visit the Nazarene Seminary in Mexico City. This trip included learning about culture, language, and ministry paired as well as outreach through The Jesus Film, street evangelism, and compassionate ministries.
