Break Forth and Hospital Adventure


Meeting George Canyon at a late night concert! 



My weekend has been an interesting one! Friday was the start of Break Forth 2013! Casting Crowns blew my mind, I love them so much! Honestly, probably one of my highlights of the weekend! I also had the opportunity on Friday to see my friends little brother compete in the Break Forth Artist Competition he made the top 10 out of hundreds! He did such a wonderful job! Got to see a bunch of friends from high school, and ran into one of my old Sunday School teachers! It was pretty crazy!!! Saturday, well where do I start! ummm, it was painful! The upside was I got to see Kari Jobe, she held a session on letting the Spirit lead in worship and how to be open to the Spirit as a worship leader! I got so much out of that session. By the time we walked back to the main building I was in so much pain, I just wanted to go home! I got to spend time with friends, but I would have enjoyed it so much more without the pain. By the time I got home, I was EXHAUSTED! Sadly, I didn't sleep at all! I got a hold of my cousin who took me to the emergency, Sunday morning! (she has been so great to have around since I moved to this big city). After close to 3 hours we were out! :) My parents showed up just a the doctor came in and told me how to take care of my ankle. I ended up spraining it pretty bad! Due to my Spina Bifida I have a weak right ankle that I roll fairly easily. I rolled it a few weeks ago, and fell a few times over the past couple weeks and with all the walking I put lots of stain on it. I think after being up for over 30 hours of almost unbearable pain, one should go to the hospital. The doctors were wonderful and helped so much!




Through out the day I received texts from friends with encouraging words and some prayers. My one friend texted out an entire prayer! Some of the prayer team members at Break Forth were praying for me! I believe God took some of the pain away! GOD IS SOOO GOOD!!!
I had a crazy weekend! I also go to meet one of my favorite Canadian Country Artists; George Canyon!

Right on the Journey

Well, this is it! I'm making a blog! Ok, well where do I start...
I am currently in my second semester of Bible College at Vanguard College in Edmonton in the LIFT program. I started in Music, but transferred second semester. I grew up in a Christian home and went to a Christian school. I love music and worshiping my Heavenly Father. I'm a simple girl, with big dreams. I was born with Spina Bifida, and have always wanted to help those who have been affected with it. I also have a heart for Haiti. My father has been going there for more years then I have been alive, and hearing his stories makes me want to go so bad!
