Jubilee (post 1)

Jubilee - "a season of celebration".

I have been given the awesome opportunity to travel to the warm island of Jamaica this coming Monday, March 12, for seven weeks to share the love of Christ with those in need. I will be interning with  Shared Hope International , an anti-trafficking organization. They partner with the Hebron House in Jamaica, working with women and girls who have become pregnant through sex trafficking or other at-risk situations. I cannot even fathom what God will do while I'm there, but I know it will be incredible!

I have titled my blog, "Jamaican Jubliee", because I believe God's work there will be a cause for celebration and rejoicing as broken lives are restored.

I would LOVE it if you would pray for me during my time in Jamaica. My prayer for my internship is directly out of Ephesians 6:19-20, " [pray] also for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains, that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak."

Hopefully I will be able to blog regularly while in Jamaica, and I look forward to sharing with you stories and photos from my experience!
