BB

Taylor use to always call Reese baby. So when Reese finally started talking he called her BB. I call her my "Bonus" Baby. I guess Reese was right on it with the letters.

Tay's church asked her to go on a special missions trip. She is going to Guatemala! How cool is that?! Well she wrote a letter to give out hoping for a little extra prayer. Before I knew she wrote this letter I thought for sure her step-dad had written it for her. Or perhaps her mom. Well I am going to let you see for yourselves why she constantly blows me away!

Hey guys,

As I'm sure most of you know, I'm a bit different than the average teenager. I don't feed into the cursing, inappropriate dress and all the gossip of my classmates. I believe I am who I am because of one person, Jesus. I accepted him at a young age, and now I want to give that opportunity to others. This June, I will be going to Guatemala with 8 of my church friends and 3 leaders. We will be helping some missionaries who live in an area called the Peten. We will be leading a vacation bible school, doing skits and puppet shows and handing out tracks to civilians who have never heard of God's grace. When I was twelve, I surrendered my life to the ministry and I have considered missions as a path for my life. For me, this is the opportunity of a life time. I am so very excited about this, but I can't do it alone. This trip is not cheap. We will fly to Guatemala and stay in a hotel for 7 nights, plus food and transportation. Any support, whether money or prayers, would be very helpful. As you can see, it is a good cause. John 3:16 says that God gave his son for the world. In my heart I know it's time the world knows too.

Thank you for your help,

Taylor Keener

What can I say I'm a proud "momma"
