End of Gap Year
Hey guys!! Guess what? Gap year is officially over! I have been home for about a month now… although it feels like I just left. I haven’t...
Hey everyone! Welcome to my blog! I am planning on writing from September 2020 - June 2021, during my gap year with Cru. Now...I’m not much of a writer, but I am so excited to be going on this trip, and I want to have a space where I can share what we are doing and how God is working in and and through this team. So through this year I hope that my Lord Jesus can be glorified through it all!
Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for He who promised is faithful
And How The Lord Called Me
My name is Danielle, but most people call me Dani! I am 19 and currently part of the Cru Gap Year. I have two wonderful, godly parents, and one brother and one sister, both older than me:) I have lived in Minnesota, Illinois, and finally Texas, where I live now.
Jesus called me on this trip around August of 2019. After struggling to make a college decision, Cru Gap Year just kind of dropped in my lap. I wasn’t sure why I felt drawn to do a gap year mission trip, but it felt like it was right. As if God had this planned all along. Which he had:) After coming up with a million excuses of why I shouldn’t go, I verse came to mind from Luke. “ If anyone would come after me, let him take up his cross and follow me.”( 9:23) Suddenly all the reasons of why I shouldn’t go didn’t seem as important. There was one thing on this earth I was placed here to do: Follow Christ. And so I am.
