Laura is a high school senior we met at New Life Baptist in Willard, Missouri.  She shadowed us as part of her job-shadowing assignment for school.  She came to the office and helped mail letters.  She also went with us, helped with set up, and greeted people at Graceway Baptist Church's Mission Conference in Springfield, MO.  She wrote us about her experience as a tag-a-long missionary.  She said, “Before, being a missionary was just something in the back of my brain.  But this experience cleared my thoughts.  I know that God wants me to be a missionary for Him!  On Sunday I made my commitment public at church.  I want to learn more about missions.  I know that God is sending me and I need to let Him lead!”
