Rwanda Clinical Missions Trip

Today marks 161 days until I board a plane to Rwanda, where I will spend my spring break working in the Mont Cyangugu Clinic along with a team of nursing students and professors. After three missions trips to Guatemala, I thought I had stepped far outside of my comfort zone. But as I sat in the first Rwanda team meeting several weeks ago, surrounded by senior nursing students, I realized that crossing borders may have been relatively easy compared to learning humility. I will be one of two sophomores on this trip, and although I will have some clinical experience next semester,  I will have logged far fewer hours than most of my older teammates.

 

This trip and the next few months of preparation will be filled with countless opportunities to turn to Jesus and ask Him to provide, and my biggest request is for prayer - for the kids and their families, for the trip leaders and team, and for myself.

 

The trip is March 12-22, and if you would like to support my trip, please let me know! I will be fundraising in various ways: if you would like to receive a letter in the mail, I will add your name to the list, or if donating electronically is simpler, I created a GoFundMe!
