I live in Knoxville, TN and am currently
working from home.  I graduated from Bryan college, 3 years ago.  I
began working with Adventures in Missions.  

I serve with the church mobilization team.  We are responsible to keep
up with the Youth Pastors that are bringing their groups on trips. We
make sure everything is getting everything done and they are ready for
their upcoming summer trips; we read their paperwork and answer their
questions. In the summer, I help lead several projects. As a manager, I
also look for ways to improve our system and our relationships with
youth pastors.

It is a love and gratefulness for His love that compels me to do what
he has called me to do. I really have a desire to help youth see this.
Many grow up in Christian homes but never realize what it is all about
- it never becomes real in their heart! It is about how much Christ
loved them! I believe that mission trips should be a crucial part of a
youth ministry. Based on my experience and research, I see a great
connection between these trips and spiritual growth.

God laid this job description on my heart before I found the job. I
served as a leader for our short-term mission trips at college and I
really fell in love with leading and planning. I love working with
youth and love getting them over the hump where this faith becomes real
and personal to them. At AIM I believe we do that by pulling them out
of all that is comfortable and putting them in an extreme and intense
environment where they will see God in a way that they never have
before.

While I am home and not traveling, I help out with our college and
career class at West Park Baptist Church in Knoxville, TN.  I love my
college girls.   I lead their small group Bible Study on Thursday
nights.  We gather for dinner and a little Bible Study.  

I recently got married on March 1st and since then I am working for AIM part time until
God gives further direction. I am open
to God's leading in several areas. Whether
there is something new to do full time with AIM, or a continual part time
position, or something new all-together.
I ask you to pray with me that God shows me his desire for me.
