HI Blog-readers!

I’m Amy! This will be my second year going to Romania – my first trip was last summer on the 2014 team. While the trip was physically, mentally, and emotionally challenging from start to finish it was also inspiring, humbling, eye-opening, and exciting. The challenge was part of the charm (if not the majority of it) and the people I met in Romania are some of the most God-fearing, courageous, and truly awesome people I have ever met. They are the reason I chose to apply for the trip this summer and having this opportunity to return to Romania and see them again knocks my socks off and I am so grateful for it.

A little about me: I graduated High School in May and will be attending UW-Madison in the fall to study school and whatever else I am led to. Last year in Romania I was a part of the band that led worship at camp and I can’t wait to play alongside my Romanian friends again (because worship in Romanian is cool). I really like peanut butter, swimming, sports, and friends – and also my pets, but they are my friends, so they don’t need their own category. I can’t believe we leave in less than two weeks and I must continue to pray that God will prepare me for our departure!
