HI! I’m Laura and I’m 16 and live in Louisville, Ky. I lived in Texas for one year and Georgia for almost 12 years before moving to Louisville when I was in middle school. I have one sister who is 13. Right now I’m finishing up my sophomore year at a private christian school. This was my first year in private school after being in public school for my whole life, so its definitly been a huge transition but I love it! I go to a huge church here in Louisville that I love and I’m into pretty much any sport, escpecially soccer and running. I like music too but I have about zero talent so I stick to sports. One of my passions is traveling the world and getting to experience new cultures. I feel like God has been using that to call me to missions. I went to Costa Rica last summer with AIM and it was a life changing experience. I got to see God move in powerful ways and I grew a lot spiritually in those 2 weeks because I was way out of my comfort zone. I still can’t really believe that I am actually going to be spending a month in Kenya this summer. It’s going to be amazing and I can’t wait to meet everyone! See you soon:)
Great to hear from you!! I’m so excited about this trip and I can’t wait!!!
Hey Laura, I definitely share your passion for travel and new cultures. I have a list of about 30 countries that I really want to go to right now and Costa Rica is near the top! You’ll have to tell me all about it when we meet in a few months!
Laura,
I am happy that you love to learn of new cultures and travel to different places as well as stepping outside your comfort zone. It is so important to be open on any new experience and I admire you for learning that now. I cannot wait to see what God does in you on this trip.
Sean- Yep, Costa Rica is amazing I would love to tell you all about it! Can’t wait to meet you!
Esther- Thanks:) Can’t wait to meet you!
