Hi! If you are reading this you probably know me to some degree already, or maybe you are someone I haven’t met yet and this is our first connection point. My name is Abby, and as I write this post I am 25 years old preparing for another great adventure with the Lord. I’ve been a Christian since I was 11 and with each year of my life that passes my relationship with God only gets sweeter, cooler, better, and deeper. I’m not sure what anyone would want to know about me, but I do know that if I wanted someone to know something about me it would be that I love God and I love people. I am passionate for seeing the kingdom of God being established here on earth as it is in heaven. I love helping people to experience and know how much God loves them and that He is good. My heart is to see people healed and established in the identity as a beloved child of God.
Outside of that, the only introduction to me that I can think of is to bullet point some fun facts. If you would like to know more then please leave a comment with a prompt for what I should share about myself. For now, here are some fun facts to help us connect:
-My favorite color is yellow! I think it’s bright, joyful, can be used for a symbol of caution or a smiley face. Yellow makes me think of warm sunshine, God’s holiness, and sunflowers.
-Anybody that knows me knows that I have a strong love for chicken nuggets. I get sent memes, songs, and pictures of chicken nuggets all of the time because my friends think of me whenever they see or hear the words “Chicken Nuggets”. And yes I have cried and happy danced over chicken nuggets.
– I also have a strong love for coffee! I have a dream to one day own my own coffee shop as a place to bring the world and Kingdom of God together in a common place. I want to create a space for anyone to be welcomed to “sit at the table” with Jesus.
– I went on the World Race in August 2018-June 2019, attended AIM’s Center for Global Action leadership program January 2020-May 2020, and am now alumni squad leading for a new World Race generation August 2021-December 2021 (Whoop Whoop!).
– I have a degree in Christian Ministries from Anderson University (the one in Anderson, SC).
– I have a big family! Part of my story is that I have divorced parents, but by God’s grace I have double the amount of love in my life because of my two “bonus” (step) families. I have lots of siblings and too many cousins to keep track of. I LOVE my big family.
