My First Blog – Emily

Hey Everyone! My name is Emily White and I am very excited to be going on the Nicaragua Mission Trip this summer! I just turned 15 and I am about to finish my Freshman year at Eastside High School. I live with my parents, older sister, my twin sister, and younger brother in Greer, SC. I run cross-country and track and love it (more cross-country than track :)). I play guitar and piano. I have helped in my church’s Vacation Bible School for about two years now, and I also helped in an outreach at a local community center. I supposedly became a Christian when I was seven years old, but I didn’t really want to study and know God more until I was about 11. I have loved Him ever since and continue to get to know Him more each day. I can’t wait to see how God will work in everyone’s lives through this trip, including mine. God will do amazing things in this month and I can’t wat to see what it will be! Looking forward to getting to know you all more in the coming weeks and of course this summer.
