Hello Everyone!
It's been a while since my last entry, so I thought I would update followers and give those who are new to my blog a little summary of my life thus far. I graduated high school a year early & left for YWAM, where I studied in Hawaii for three months then served with Samaritan's Purse in Japan for another three months. Immediately following that, I spent a couple of weeks in Maui trying to figure out what to do next and ended up moving to Nashville, Tennessee for work. I have been here for the last six months just making money to save for college. While here I found my passion for art and my great desire to counsel women who come out of human trafficking in other countries. I have since decided to pursue a career in art therapy, as a tool to help rehabilitate those women. So, starting in January I will (God-willing) attend school in Washington state to start working towards my masters degree. I am currently applying to Moody Bible Institute in Spokane, where I will hopefully attending if I am accepted.
While I have been in Nashville I've been spending my time working, reading a lot, studying French and speaking to as many professionals in the psychology field as possible.
I do miss missions very much right now, but I believe that God puts us through certain seasons for a reason, and I believe that right now I just need to be preparing in whatever way I can for whatever is next. I do hope to find an internship or job at some counseling center while I am in Spokane, so as to get exposed to the psychology field more. But we shall see what God has in store.
Please feel free to email me with any questions or comments you have!
Much love,
Demetria
