Friends,

I have been on the road for the majority of the summer with a ministry called Kingdom Dreams. In the past four weeks God has set me on a collision course with something incredible. Jeremiah 29:11 has become more than a hope in the recent events on my journey. I have had divine encounters, supernatural appointments, and very vivid dreams. I want to share with you what has been on my heart and how I am finding God through prayer, abandonment, and a willingness to go (Jeremiah 29:12-13).

Three weeks ago I took a huge step of faith and decided to go… That first looked like taking a close friend of mine to her missions training with AIM. On the way, I had a telephone conversation about meeting with Clint Bokelman to discuss what going looked like. After I dropped my friend off for her training I was immediately called into a meeting with Clint. The first question he asked me was, “What’s been on your heart lately?”My response was Ireland.

In the two weeks previous to this conversation I discussed my heart for Ireland with at least two people, but didn’t invest much of my efforts into pursuing this dream. The instant the word came out of my mouth Clint responded “No way! I’m having dinner with a missionary to Ireland tonight. You’re coming with me.” So I went.

In the midst of this dinner I heard about the problems with the youth of Ireland, how they are one of the least-evangelized European nations, and how God’s people there have been crying out for someone to show them how to make disciples of their youth. Dave Hayman, a youth pastor from New Jersey and missionary to Ireland, poured out his heart for the development of youth drop-in centers (basically local discipleship centers). Hearing this made me recall my heart to create a café/coffee shop that’s main push is to disciple at-risk-youth and teach them how to make disciples themselves.

Clint and I decided to set up a consultation for me to go through the process of becoming a long-term missionary through AIM. After that process it was suggested I take a vision trip to Ireland to find more clarity on what mission work looks like there as well as to hear more specifically what He is calling me to do.

So here we are now. Undeniably, God orchestrated something beautiful and possible in only two weeks. I have been given the freedom to go with Dave and his team to Ireland from June 29^th through July 13^th.

This is what I'll be doing:

- Learning new Discipleship Models

- Forerunning AIM's involvement in Ireland

- Researching Sustainable Business Models

- Documenting the Whole Process
