Hi everyone!

My name is Leah Branderhorst, and I am one of the leaders who is going on the trip with you! I have spent the last while reading through your posts, and it has made me very excited! You all seem like such great people, and I cannot wait to get to know you.
Here is a little bit about me:
I am Senior at Trinity Christian College in IL. I am studying to be an English teacher, and I absolutely love it! I am a total nerd in the fact that I love school, but that is part of what makes me, me! I love to read and I love being around people. Three words that describe me are creative, organized, and driven. I have two older sisters. One is married and recently had a beautiful baby boy (whom I adore) and the other is getting married in September.  I am originally from Michigan, but decided to go to school in IL. There are so many things that I want to tell you, I am just not sure where to start!
Over the past few years, I have learned a lot in my faith. God has definitely used college to strengthen me, and for that I am thankful. This opportunity means the world to me, and I am so ready to get to know each of you individually. Be sure to keep in contact, and ask if you have any questions. Have a great week :)
Leah
