Hey shawty’s! 

Right now I am in a hostel in Antigua and I will see my parents tomorrow for the first time in 7 months. This week is the Parent Vision Trip so my parents and I will go to the ministry that I have been with for the past 2 months! I can’t wait to see them! 

So I will be with them until Monday then I will hope on a plane to start traveling to eSwatini and I will get there on Thursday. 

Please enjoy this video I filmed a couple days ago, where I myself lunch and explain everything!

  3. Hi, sweet Kenz. Thank you so much for sharing your day, week, and lunch with us! That huge avocado with onion tortilla made our mouths water. Yummy! Can you even believe it is mid-March? I’ve worn your “GoRing” silver ring almost every day of your Race to remind me of you. And Granddad has your Easter gift made and ready to give to you soon (along with your Christmas gift)! This will be an incredible homecoming in May….but before that Swaziland/Eswatini in South Africa!!! It’s really happening, Kenz! Enjoy the week with your parents and we’ll “talk” soon. We love you!

  4. It is so great to see your smiling face and hear your message. I do think of you often and Tess and I talk about you. The other day you came to mind and then later that day you posted pics on Instagram. Made me smile. I am so excited for you and your parents getting to see each other. I cannot imagine how much they have missed you. I am looking forward to hearing about your next journey.

  5. Hi Mackenzie,
    I so enjoyed watching your video! That avocado looked amazing! Today is Wed. so I am sure you are enjoying much anticipated time with your Mom & Dad! It’s always great to see your beautiful smile & hear more about your journey.
    Love & hugs,

  6. Hey Mackemzie, thank you so much for sharing your journey with us. Remind me so much of what Amanda and Jordan shared during Kaleo. I love how the language barrier is absolutely no barrier at all and in fact fewer words said intentionally and with meaning can speak volumes. May your time with your parents be renewing and uplifting for all and blessings for safety and for stepping out in faith for your upcoming trip to Swaziland. My Gods hands be with you every step. In Him, Jennifer

  7. It all sounds amazing Mackenzie! And more to come—what a wonderful adventure.

  8. Oh my! So fun hearing from you! I saw your parents on Sunday they can’t wait to see you!!! You definitely see the joy in their eyes when they speak of you! This by far is my favorite update when you spoke about serving the family made me smile! Thank you for the updates!! Stay safe!

  9. Oh sweet Mackenzie, How wonderful to see your video and hear your story. You are a beautiful girl inside and out and I love you so much. Can hardly wait for your Mom and Dad to fill Grandpa and me on everything going on there. God’s blessing on you and your team as you travel to Africa. I pray for you every day and thank God for you. Grandpa and Grandma GG.

  10. I just watched this again because I miss you so much and needed to see and hear you! What a pleasure it was to listen to you describe all of the ministries after we were able to work along side of you in Guatemala and know exactly what you were talking about. You are so right, Guatemala is magical and the people are lovely/amazing/caring/hospitable/beautiful. That trip changed my life in many ways and I will be forever grateful for the opportunity! I love you so much and am looking forward to our next embrace when you return home! But first, finish strong in Africa, sweetie! God has a plan for you and a divine appointment for each day!! I love you!!!!!!!!
