Meet Hannah!

Hello! My name is Hannah Raye.  I am a freshmen Family and Community Services major from Dallas, Texas (God's country).

I enjoy spending time with Jesus, being with friends, laughing, shopping, watching movies, working out, making stupid videos, getting on pinterest, playing jokes on people, crafting, and singing (not really, I have no musical talent whatsoever! When I sing, my friends just laugh.) I am addicted to coffee.

I am so excited to go to Zambia!  I am all for trying new things, I know I will get many opportunities to while in Zambia!  This will be my fourth time out of the United States, but my first time in Africa.

I am looking forward to spending the month of June in Zambia!

Why am I going to Zambia, you ask? God completely worked everything out and I was not even aware of it. I met Dayla (leader of the Team) at a Bible study; she was talking about how she was going to Zambia this summer, and I (being myself) piped in and said, "I am going to Zambia with you!" Little did I know that that was just what God had planned for me. God has laid a desire and longing on my heart for Zambia and the people in Zambia. Isn't it amazing how God works while we are completely oblivious? Right now, I am asking God to make me teachable, so I will be open to learning from everyone I come in contact with in Zambia, and even at OBU. I know the people in Zambia will teach and impact me so much more than I will impact or teach them.
