Get to Know Rebecca
A Bit About Me:
Hola! I’m Rebecca :) I’m 23 years old and I’m from Morristown, TN. I moved to Nashville about 8 months ago and it has been an adventure since! The Lord has been working so much in my life and I’ve gotten so many opportunities to grow as a person. I’m excited to take those opportunities of growth abroad this summer!! <3
A favorite Bible verse of mine:
”I waited patiently for the Lord; he inclined to me and heard my cry. He drew me up from the desolate pit, out of the miry bog, and set my feet upon a rock, making my steps secure. He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many will see and fear, and put their trust in the Lord.“ Psalms 40:1-3
Favorite Food: I enjoy all kinds of foods, but the dish that is a favorite for me would have to be Caldo de Albóndigas. It’s a Mexican soup that my mom and many of my loved ones have made me throughout my life. It’s homey, delicious, and full of memories.
Fun Fact: I got a CNA license as a high school senior!
How can people be praying for you?
You can pray for all that I will experience on the trip and for the months leading up to it. That I can continue to let the Lord work in me as he readies my heart for all that is to come. To be able to be a good steward of what I have been given so the fruit that comes from it will be a blessing to others. Pray that the requirements for my trip are met from the generosity of others and from the opportunities given to me. This trip is one that I know will be significant to my life in many ways. It’s one that is going to be filled with many challenges that I am excited to face because I know they will only continue to mold me!
What is your hope for this trip?
I hope that my perspective continues to grow as a globally conscious person whose awareness brings on a continued desire to serve others. That I can continue gaining confidence in the abilities God is instilling in me. For the skills that I’m learning here with the youth can become a blessing to those I get to serve. I want to have a humble heart that allows for growth to come about as I learn more about the Lord through these experiences and through others. I hope that my heart is open to be tested and molded so I can live out the purpose the Lord has given me :)
