New Beginnings

Hello everyone!!
So recently as some of you know, I joined my youth group on the Back To School Retreat to start talking about things we can do differently in our church and youth group. Also talking about mission opportunities we could do! I am beyond excited to share some things that we plan on doing. 
For starters, me and my roomie Grace, and 5 other youth kids are on the youth leadership team at our church. This Christmas, we plan on going on a mission trip, just us, to do some missions either in Alaska or Chicago. We are still praying about which place God will want us to go. For the youth, the first trip will be somewhere in the states. We all are going to do things every month with our youth group involving missions in our local area. It's gonna be pretty exciting!

In a week from today, I will be moving into my dorm at Colin and starting my first day working there as a Resident Assistant. I'm beyond excited and so is Grace! We start college the 19th.
Beginning a new life living away from home, but not too far. Seeing where God leads me, and doing everything for Him. Studying General Studies with my time here, and move on after two year to Mississippi College to study what I'm in college for: Christian Studies and Philosophy.
Meeting new people, building lifelong relationships, and gathering with Christian students at the BSU. Having fun with Christians and experience college life in a way that glorifies God and not the opposite. Being me and having a blast in college!!
Roomies with Grace, also being small group leaders together for the Zion Hill Baptist Church junior high and high school girls, and part of the youth group leadership team.
Looking for mission opportunities also while studying, and looking for opportunities to share Christ with others.
I can't wait to see what else God has in store for me!!

I would love if you would pray for me as u begin this amazing journey in college.
Show Love, Be Love!
Tonya,  :)
