Sarah Schepens



Today I hung out with Sarah for one of the last times before she goes on her mission so I just wanted to take some time and write about her and how much she has impacted me. :)

Sarah is so wise and just has this peace about her. No matter what goes on, or what is happening she always seems to be filled with this incomprehensible peace. It's definitely a gift from God.
Over the past few months I've had the privilege of getting to know her. Her story is amazing. I still remember the first time we hung out outside of Life Group at Starbucks and she just told me her story. She's been through so much and has so much to offer.
She's given me advice that I've really taken to heart.
She's become a "big sister" in my life. I look up to her and I know that I can go to her with anything and she always knows just what to say.
Today was probably the last time I'll get to see her for awhile because she is moving to Jordan for a year. While this is REALLY sad and slightly depressing, she is going to do INCREDIBLE things over there so it's hard to be too sad about her leaving.
She's been preparing for this trip for a long time and I can't wait to see how God uses her!

I'll miss you, friend!!!
