Hi!!

My name is Peyton and I am so so excited to go on this journey with the Lord and see what happens! I go to Liberty Common High School and am graduating in 3 years!!! The Lord really has opened up opportunities and blessed me beyond belief, opening doors to make this all possible and I AM BEYOND EXCITED! 

A few things about me:

I love enneagram!!! I am a 6w7 meaning I am the ‘loyalist’, striving for security and comfort whilst also having a spontaneous and adventure craving side. I am always up for an adventure. Over anything, I value reliability and consistency in relationships. I also love love love jokes, and will literally look them up and start laughing and crying. I just love laughing and genuine raw moments. I live for the good times and the stories life brings you. Some of my most favorite moments in my life have been the most embarrassing ones.

COFFEE is my favorite thing, ever. I love love love coffee. And let me tell you, not just sugar in a cup, but real coffee. I will literally drink a shot of espresso by itself because the flavors are just so so good. I am even a barista, loving the job because of my free shift drink On the Race, I will really have to learn to have the Lord fulfill my intense love for this and truly cling on to the face that he is the drink of life.

I love talking to people and genuine relationships. COMMUNITY AND PEOPLE drive me. I love relationships and stories and I find it insane that we all have a different story and different place that we came from. Its crazy how unique and wonderful and amazing each person is. I love uncovering people’s stories and getting to the raw vulnerability of what makes each person who they are. I always strive to make people know how very deeply loved and appreciated they are. Life can be so. so. so. hard and so lonely, and I want to be a person that shows how we are not alone. Not only do we have eachother, but we also have our Lord and savior JESUS CHRIST.

finally, thank goodness for JESUS- my foundation, rock, love of my life, encourager, father, counselor, savior, my everything. The Lord is my foundation. He provides me constant hope and encouragement. I just find it astounding that He loved ME– ME– so much that He gave his life for me. like WOW. I do not deserve this. I am so broken, mean, evil, sinful, dirty, but He has so much grace that He died and conquered death for me. THIS gift, THIS WONDERFUL GIFT. Just wow. AMEN. God is so good. I cannot wait to go pursue this relationship with Him in COSTA RICA, ROMANIA, AND CAMBODIA!! I cannot wait to share this hope and love with others: my squad mates, the locals, and everyone in between!!

I cannot wait for this experience of adventure and growth and community and relationship and faith and so much more.

Thank you all so much.

Much love.

Peyton:)
