My initial intent in starting this blog is to inform people of my summer experiences in Medora, ND. I am leaving in three days! I have been blessed with the amazing opportunity to go on a cru summer project with about 20 other students to Medora, ND. We will each have a full time job in this small tourist town in the southwest part of North Dakota. Also, there will be discipleship time, we will be equipped in college ministry, and we will have opportunities to share the gospel. I am so excited for this experience but also a little scared. This will be my first summer project and I have heard so many great stories from students that have went on project in the past. I have already seen how God is drawing me closer to Him through this summer project. As I am raising support, talking with family and friends, and preparing for the summer I have learned so much about trusting God and growing in relationship with God and others. I continue to seek God as the days come closer to arriving in Medora. God provided me with a ride to the southern part of Wisconsin so I can ride with three other project students out to Medora. I am very excited to get to know them on the drive and to meet the rest when we arrive.
It's getting late and I have more to prepare, pack, and pray about tomorrow. I want to thank everyone that has supported me both financially and prayerfully and thank you to all my brothers and sisters in Christ that have continued to encourage me as I prepare for this summer adventure. There will be updated posts on this website as the summer continues :)

About Me
Name: Hannah
Profession: college student
Studying... mathematical science
Dream Vacation: missions trip to Africa, Alaska, rainforest in south/central America
Favorite Bible Verses: I am not ashamed of the gospel because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes. Romans 1:16; The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? Psalm 27:1; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:31; and more!
Favorite Color: green
Favorite Sport: running
Favorite Quote: "Every morning in Africa a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the lion or it will not survive. Every morning a lion wakes up and it knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle or it will starve. It doesn't matter if you are the lion or the gazelle, when the sun comes up, you better be running."
- Maurice Greene
Favorite Animals: sea turtle, gazelle, dragonfly
Favorite Music: christian (anything from hip hop, rap, hymns, or contemporary worship music), some country
Favorite Books: The Holy Bible, Crazy Love by Francis Chan, Radical by David Platt, I love reading
Favorite Season: autumn (when you can wear blue jeans, a hoodie, and no shoes and chill by a bonfire)
A few words to describe yourself.
My number one passion in life is to glorify God. I am recently engaged to my best friend! I love doing anything outdoors, especially hiking and camping. I'm always trying to find ways to be active but I enjoy days of relaxation as well.
What does "Five Pairs of Shoes and Barefeet" mean?
There are five styles of shoes that you can find me wearing, but my favorite is going barefoot.
What are the five styles of shoes?
flip-flops, running sneakers, cowboy boots, hiking shoes, high heels
How do these types of shoes describe you?
flip-flops...the closest thing to barefeet, I love being near water and walking along the shore of the lake
running sneakers...running is my outlet from stress
cowboy boots...grew up on a small farm and love taking care of the animals
hiking shoes...hiking is one of my favorite outdoor activities
high heels...for the days when I want to feel pretty
That's all folks!
