         As I listen to my favorite song by Chris Tomlin, “God of This City”, I reflect on the day God placed me in downtown Springfield, MO. It was on Dec 12, 2009 that God broke my heart for the lost and broken. He brought Michael B. Free to me and as God allowed me to bless Michael, He allowed Michael to bless me as well.           It was my last weekend in Springfield and I had set the whole day aside from my studying from finals because I felt God drawing me to pray from 10am to 10pm...

Driving into Ongole on Sunday 31st was on of the most eye opening and overwhelming things ever. Wild dogs, trash all over the place, burn piles, heavy dust, buses that looks like sheet metal stapled together, so many people peeing on the road, crowded streets, families of 3 with luggage squeezed unto motorcycles and mopeds..these are only some of the devastating scenes of poverty that have crossed my sight.

This Speech, “I Have A Dream” was his heart’s cry.      Monday night our team experienced life on the streets of downtown Atlanta from 10pm to around 3am. It really opened our eyes and God showed us His heart for the homeless. At 12am we found a spot and started praying about what God wanted us to sacrifice on this trip.      When I was 16, God gave me a dream to be a missionary to India.
