"Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work. ... He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your righteousness. You will be enriched in every way to be generous in every way, which through us will produce thanksgiving to God. For the ministry of this service is not only supplying the needs of the saints but is also overflowing in many thanksgivings to God" 2 Corinthians 9:7-12 I'm looking for people to adopt me as their personal missionary for 2016. I need to increase my monthly support by $500 a month for the coming year. Ask God if you will be one of the ways that He uses in 2016? You can partner with me by giving a one-time gift or setting up monthly giving. Give before Dec 31 to count for your taxes. All donations are tax-deductible when given through YWAM San Diego/Baja with the link provided. http://bit.ly/1u8w7ey

Seriously blown away by the generous hearts of the families of our base! This was my Christmas present!!! I will never sleep again, I'll be too busy trying each of these! Thank you from the very bottom of my heart to all that contributed towards this amazing gift! There were definitely tears which is very rare for me. Every time I have coffee I will be reminded of how much I am truly loved not only by you guys but by my Heavenly Father! For those that don't know (including the ones who gave this to me) I had one previously but it hasn't worked in about a year and half. This truly was an answer to prayer! Add to this the 1 month free from staff fees I won last night & I don't need anything else! My Christmas & heart is full! #attitudeofgratitude #giving #YWAM #ywamsdb #missions #preschoolteacherlife

Conversations with random visitors in the Preschool: Girl Child abt 5 yrs old: "They are going to shoot guns." Me: "Oh, that's not very kind." Girl: "Oh, they're not going to shoot people. They're going to shoot in the sky at Jesus. That's not very nice so I'm going to pray for Him". Love the heart & mind of a child!! "He said to them, 'Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.' " Mark 10:14 #preschoolteacherlife #littlebuilderspreschool #kidssaythedarndestthings

Hey guys, I'll be in town next week (flying in on Saturday) & I would LOVE to see as many of you as I can!! I will be at Metropolitan Church (2800 Metropolitan Way just off Acton & 459 in Hoover) on Sunday (December 12). I'll be speaking in Cary & Amy Miller's Sunday School Class at 9:15 and then sharing a brief update during Big Church at 10. I will have a table in the Commons with some last minute Christmas Presents (Peppermint & Gingerbread Sugar Scrubs, Lavender, Orange & Stress Away Bath Salts, Homemade Lip Balms, etc made from Young Living Essential Oils) & some goodies from Mexico (authentic hot sauces, Mexican Vanilla, Tajin which is a sugary-spicy topping for fruit) all for donations towards my ministry. I'm also looking for partners for the upcoming year to join me. Please pray about joining me financially with a one-time gift or a monthly commitment. This can be given through YWAM San Diego/Baja via http://bit.ly/1u8w7ey for a tax-deductible donation. If you can't make to the church on Sunday, I would still love to meet you for coffee or dinner. Please let me know what day & time works best for you.

Looking for a way to promote health & wellness for your family this holiday season? If you purchase a Young Living Essential Oils Premium Starter Kit (PSK) using this link (http://bit.ly/1ffEfIk) today BEFORE midnight (MST), I will give you a $25 gift card. There are several to choose from. You can get the Essential Oils PSK which includes 11-5ml bottles of oil including Frankincense and Thieves plus a dewdrop diffuser and so much more! All for $160 plus tax & shipping. Don't think you'll use all the oils, try the Ningxia Red PSK which is great for overall wellness support. OR try the Thieves PSK which is a great way to replace all of those toxic cleaners, household items and toiletries with all-natural, oil-infused, better than organic products.

My good friend, JD Maclean, has an awesome online shop called, Delighted Place, where every purchase helps fight human trafficking. JD works directly with these girls here in Tijuana, some as young as 9, who have been sold into the sex traffic world but God is bringing them out & restoring their lives. Please consider buying something from her store during #cyberMonday and let's help fight human & sex trafficking on the streets of Tijuana and around the world!!

I've determined that this isn't cutting it anymore & with the amount of work I do at home in my room (that's too small to have a desk or chair) I need to upgrade to a foldable wooden bed table thing. You know, the kind on which they serve breakfast in bed! Anybody want to invest in one for me? Breakfast in bed part is optional!

I drink #NingxiaRed every morning to help #energize, #fortify, & #revitalize my body. This is a perfect overall wellness drink & much safer and better for you than all those energy drinks. Only 1-2oz is all you need and these 2 bottles last me about 2.5 months. You can mix it with water, organic juice or straight up. It is also safe for the kiddos and preggos. Replace your morning coffee while getting some incredible vitamins. Research Wolfberry from China and Ningxia Red's benefits on your own. #blackfriday Link in the profile, or go to bit.ly/1ffEflk to create a #retail account to order!

Had such a wonderful time hanging out with Bonni & Blakers in San Diego, running some errands, picking up some awesome stuff for our Essential Oils Make & Take Party on Thursday. Our trip even included Chick-fil-A for dinner! YAY!! Bonus, I come home to see that #Alabama WON!!! YAY!!!!! (of course I kept up with the game on my phone the whole time. Wore my Bama shirt proudly all day and had a couple people at Costco ask me about the game and even saw a lady wearing an Auburn shirt at Chick-fil-A. She said War Eagle & I replied #RollTide). It was a GREAT DAY!!!!

What is this world coming to?? No wonder teachers are quitting their jobs in schools. They aren't paid nearly enough for their time let alone having to deal with things like this!! For taking his phone away during class, which I'm sure he shouldn't have had or been using in the first place, but regardless, this is a HUGE disrespect of authority & is a SERIOUS problem for our future. When children are not held accountable for their actions as they are growing up, they treat others like this when they get to high school. It genuinely makes me very sad! If you don't already, please start praying daily for the schools in your area, even if you don't have children in those schools. Prayer changes things!!!!!

It's officially November 1st which means that it is no longer Halloween & costumes are being marked down to get them off the shelves & out the doors. Why not take advantage of that and send a few drastically reduced costumes down to our preschool kids in Mexico. We use these for our dramatic play area as well as various parties that we host for our missionary kids. Details are in the image! #weewamers #ywampreschool #preschoolteacherlife #ywam #ywamsdb #ywamsdm

Happy birthday to this adorkable little girl. I can't believe that she's 9! I remember getting a message on my phone during my #DTS in Ensenada, Mexico that this little light decided she didn't want to be born on Halloween, her scheduled birthday, but instead wanted to come on her own terms! She's been doing things on her own terms ever since! Her entire life, I've been a missionary & have watched her grow through technology & occasional visits into a beautiful, kind, compassionate, loving, sassy, divalicious young lady! She is always doing for others & looking for ways to include people and make them feel happy. Kaylee Grace, I'm so proud of you and the peacemaker that you are. I love you & hope you have an incredible day today! See you soon!
