I am so very proud of this beautiful woman of God! Maria was in the Fall 2013 Compassion and Action DTS (Discipleship Training School) here at the San Antonio del Mar campus of YWAM (Youth With A Mission) San Diego/Baja. She was in my small group and one of my one-on-ones. I was so blessed to walk with her through the journey of finding true intimacy with The Lord as He romanced her throughout her DTS. You may remember reading a bit about Maria last fall as I wrote all about one of the many ways God was romancing her. She is the one that received a heart-shaped necklace from one of her fellow students during an act of giving. If you don't recall that particular story, head over & read it now, we will wait.
She is currently in Norway doing her BCC (Biblical Core Course), a 3 month intensive inductive Bible study! Here is what the YWAM Rogaland base shared recently on Facebook about Maria and a few words from her about how important the BCC is to her.

This girl is from New York, USA. Her name is Maria and she is part of the beautiful bouquet of BCC students.
Maria is a sporty girl with a beautiful voice. She is a joy giver, encourager and she is a person with enthusiasm and true passion for what she believes in.
“This school is very important and special to me because it is allowing me to take time away and focus on the word of God. I’m experiencing the Lord in completely new ways compared to DTS. I’m gaining understanding of the Bible and developing methods and a foundation that will equip me for a future dedicated to serving the Lord. It’s so important for me to understand the word because God spoke through all of these writers to us as believers. Knowing his word will allow me to know him even more personally. And knowing that the same God, as in scripture, is the God I serve today, allows me to understand his character and his heart for his people and how he desires us to live.”
This is just one of the many facets of my life here with YWAM. This is why I do what I do! Serving Him through the everyday!
