My Last Night in Peru!
The new community: Kelli, Emily, Katie, Kyle with me in Lima. My last night in Peru! God bless them as they carry the torch and do good work in Chimbote.
I am a 1997 graduate of the University of Incarnate Word in San Antonio, TX with a double degree; Bachelor in Music Flute Performance and Bachelor of Science in Nursing. From 1997 to 2009, I was employed as a hospital nurse. I am taking 2 years (2009-2011) to learn the Spanish language and explore Nursing in a community health setting while growing in faith and experiencing the beauty of living abroad as a lay missionary in Peru.
