Noonday collection and the International Justice Mission has teamed up for the #StyleForJustice Story Team Trip to Rwanda. An amazing group of bloggers will be making this trip to spread the word that when we use our purchasing power for good and pursue the cause of justice, hope for the poor is possible.
They have left room for one lucky winner to join the team with an all expense paid trip.
After much prayer, consideration, and questioning myself and competence, I have entered to win. You can vote {HERE} for me every day on all your internet devices from now until May 28. This would be a life changing opportunity and I would be so grateful for your votes.
I am including my entry essay on why I should be chosen for this trip.
Thanks for your support in all things, friends. Much love to you all.
I don't have a fancy
reason or story on why I should be chosen to go on this trip. The truth is I don't believe there is one
deserving woman. I think we all are in so many ways. My heart leaps with joy
and excitement at the thought of being able to travel to Rwanda with such
brave, bold, confident, and loving women. My arms ache to hug mothers all
over the world trying to survive and make a better life for their family. My
mouth waters to whisper words of love and encouragement to children living in
unimaginable conditions. My mind races with millions of ways this trip would
change my mind and open my eyes.
I would be so honored to join in this campaign and cause, not because of who I am, but because of who God is. He is the link that joins us and the tie that binds. I am just a vessel. A vessel which spends her days doing very ordinary things in the hopes my children, and those around me, will see Jesus and see the world through love. A vessel who desperately desires to share His greatness. A vessel which truly believes the way to a better world and life is to fiercely love day in and day out through the big and the small.

I believe Noonday is a
living, thriving example of this and it thrills my soul to share in that
cause.
