So lately I've been getting a LOOOOT of questions about my Costa Rica trip! Well, I am here to answer them! So to get the ball rolling, I will start with the most common question:
What IS a missions trip?
-Great Question! A missions trip is NOT a vacation! It is a trip
only focused on God & his desires of what he wants our team to do. We are working 90% of the time. We help those who need help, & speak the words he wants out of our mouths.
Why can't you earn the money yourself?
-I get this question often. Its not that I dont want to work, but I have other things besides this trip I need to focus on too. School is my main priority, & to make sure I pass, I must go to summer school to pass a class that I have failed. This will take up most of my time for a month. I can't get a job, if I am at school. Another reason I don't get a job is, my parents want me to be a kid. My mama tells me, "You have to work the REST OF YOUR LIFE. Enjoy being a kid!!" & You know what? I love that. I feel no pressure to grow up so young. When H.S is over, I will get a job, & go to collage & start my grown up life then (:
What if something bad happens to you?
-I thank you for concern! :D I dont think anything will happen to me, but if it does, it was my time to go. At least I would accomplish my dream to change a life. I am not scared of death, but I am scared of who I leave behind. I cannot promise anything, but I'm living on faith. I believe, no matter where in the world I am, that I will be the safest. I know God, & my Angel Mike, will protect me. I have faith in what I am doing, & why I am doing this.
Why ARE you doing this?
-You know, when you feel that moment of; 'I need to do it myself'? Or 'I feel something'? This is one of those feelings. I
feel like I'm being called out there. I honestly don't know how to explain it! I know this sounds weird to you who have a different belief, but I heard a voice next to my ear when Pastor Josh was speaking & it told me this, "
Here's what I have planned for you." I felt in my heart, that these children need me to show/share my love.
Say I donate money. What's in it for me?
-Well, I thank you for donating money! :D I really couldn't tell you what's in it for you, & I'm being honest. The fact that you, YOU helped send me to do God's work would be prideful all on its own. God says that when you give, you will receive 10x that amount! So, if your one who doesn't believe, it's good karma in lack of a better word.
Well how long are you going to be gone?
-7 days my friend! August 24th- Sept 1st! Then 2 days later I have to go back to school! :D
Thanks everyone for reading this!!! :D

"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof." psalms 46: 1-3
