My Story

My name is Kaleigh Jackson. I am currently a sophomore music education major at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, TX. If I had to describe myself, I would use things I like or like to do. My favorite color is yellow and I am a morning person. Dogs make me happy and encourage me to live a life of joy. I love to read and could get lost for an afternoon between pages.

I dedicated my life to Christ at the wee age of 8. Since then, I have taken much joy in serving God and further glorifying his Kingdom.
Recently God has been opening my heart for missions and this is my first opportunity to step out in faith and trust that God will provide. For the longest time I was hesitant to go on a mission trip for fear that I would lose something along the way. However, God has been recently opening my heart to let go of worldly possessions in order to better step out in faith. I have been made aware that I would not lose anything on this trip, rather, I would help the Kingdom gain new members.

That being said, I need your help! If you feel led, please consider donating. Anything and everything will be greatly appreciated.

I will also be posting updates as they become available.
