I’m in Chile!
I’m so thankful to finally be here! I arrived in Santiago on February 13th and spent the next 10 days in quarantine. Travel was much smoother than I expected. I left Minnesota with some anxiety about Covid and airport procedures, but everything came out just fine. I even got a row of four seats to myself on the plane. I felt like I was flying first class! Thank you for praying for me and thinking of me during the travel and the first few days getting settled in here. I’ve appreciated all the emails, messages, and phone calls, even if I haven’t been able to return all of them! I’m out of quarantine now and enjoying time with my fiance, Cris, and my friends before the semester starts.

Getting started at El Oasis
The college semester here starts next week, so we’re busy getting ready. Last week was training and team building. I was grateful for the chance to learn more about the ministry and also get to know my teammates! This week, it’s all about the planning. We’re making goals for the ministry this semester and talking about the different kinds of events we want to do! We’re excited to get started and get involved with our students, but there’s a lot of work to do first.

Keep up with me on social media!
We’ve learned a lot about staying in touch via technology lately, so there’s no reason we shouldn’t be able to stay connected this year! For those that don’t use social media, this website is going to have my updates on it, as well as personal posts and pictures, and more information on my ministry. You can also still text me or call me at my US number! I love hearing from you, and I’ll try to be better about responding. Send me an email/text about what’s going on in your life or how I can be praying for you!
