Kona kona kona!

I finally made it back to the Big Island yesterday after a fantastic visit with my family in Arizona. Thank you so much for all your prayers for safety!

Since being back, all in just 1 day, the Lord has already laid much on my heart for what is going to be done this year. Community is going to be huge. We are going to become a big, loud, fun, loving, growing, encouraging family. Personally, He is going to show me more and more of who I am in Him. I need no one else, just Him. He is going to show me who I am in Him, who I am to others around me, how He is going to use me.

Back to basics. He is going to take me back to the basics with Him. I love Kona and YWAM. I truly do. However, even though it is a Christian community, it can be very distracting. I do not want to confuse being surrounded by amazing friends, awesome worship, and listening to spirit filled speakers as growing closer to God. That is all happening on the outside, and I want the change to be on the inside. So we're going back to the basics of just HIm and Me. Just Jesus and Kristi. I'm so pumped to see where I am going to be by the end of this year. In just 6 short months, God did so much. I can't even imagine what He is going to do for the next 9.

Israel- The Lord is moving! As we draw closer to the time to go, we have been pressing in and seeing what God has in store for us while we are there. A common theme that we have gotten is that God is going to impart on us to bring back to the Awaken school. We do not know what this is or what it looks like, but we are stoked to find out what it is. We are in need of a guy worship leader to go with us, so please be praying that God brings one to us :)


Finances- The cost for Israel will be around $2,500. Please be praying that this comes in! I know it will! Thank you so so so much to everyone who has contributed to by journey with YWAM. It means more to me then you know.
