We out here we out here.
some raw & real thoughts from yours truly
Hey everyone! It’s been awhile since I’ve given any sort of update, so I wanted to take a second to let y’all in on what I’ve been up to and where I’m headed in the months to come. After being in Lynchburg, VA for almost 2 years, my time being there physically has come to a close, although I think a piece of my heart will always rest there. I always tell people that I moved to Lynchburg for my Masters, but I stayed for community. Lynchburg is one of a kind, and during my time there, I made some incredible friends, enjoyed hiking as much as possible, worked for an unforgettable nonprofit, and truly planted some eternal roots. God did a lot in my heart through my time in Lynchburg, and I loved being near the Appalachians so much that moving back to the flat, farmland suburbs of Chicago has been a bit of a shock. Yep, you heard me right. I’m back in the Chicago suburbs for a short time, working remotely, and spending time with my fam before heading out west to do some regrouping and extensive praying about what’s next! I don’t know about you, but I do my best thinking when I’m on the go, so I’m looking forward to this time seeing new places, visiting friends, and tuning into the Spirit on a daily basis. **I’ll still be working remotely, so don’t worry, parents, I’ll be okay out there ;) ** Anyway, if you know me, you know that overseas missions is something that I’m very passionate about. So one thing I’ll specifically be praying about is logistics regarding that (i.e. where to go, when to go, who to go with, etc etc.) so please, join me in prayer over that! Lastly, if you want to follow me in my travels, please subscribe on here for updates! I’m not planning on being on social media much, so all of my pics & updates will be on here :) And PLEASE, I mean this in all genuineness, if you need prayer for anything, I would love to hear from you! Please reach out anytime, and if you don't have my contact info, just hit me up on the "about me" page! That's all for now. More to follow in the weeks to come... <3 Mikayla And here's a small glimpse into my past year:

Hey Mikayla! Life is sounding interesting for you. I will definitely be praying about your next step. Let me know your favorite (or one of your favorite) verses and I’ll write it on a random day in my planner, (or day of your choice) so I can pray specifically for you that day!
