Anna Henthorn

Hi!I’m Anna,I’m 17&from Ohio.I go to a large high school but have a
few close friends who are always encouraging me.To be honest,I don’t
enjoy school that much but I think that’s b/c I know that God has bigger
plans for me & I’m anxious for adventure & change.I’m the
oldest in the family.I have a younger sis & brother who are 10
& 8.Ellie & Jack are my dogs and make me laugh everyday.Jack is
my baby & follows me wherever I go & Ellie is an energetic
border collie who is beyond crazy.I like to sing and am trying to get
the guitar guy to call me back so I can start my guitar lessons! My
uncle is my pastor at a small yet vibrant church.Since not that many
young people go there, I go to another church for youth group.My y.g
has had its struggles but God has pulled us through all of them &
has drawn us even closer through our Tennessee m.trip last summer where
I did VBS which I’ve been teaching for a few years.I adore kids &
find nothing more rewarding than seeing there eyes light up when
singing & learning about Jesus.I tend to be quiet at times b/c I
like to listen to what people have to say & get to know them but I
also have many opinions and enjoy engaging in conversations &
building new relationships.I grew up in a Christian family but I didn’t truly accept Christ until I was 12.It hasn’t been perfect of course
since then.I have struggled but my faith has grown stronger each time
b/c He has pulled me through it all & I know that my own strength
couldn’t have done that.I have hope now when I see people struggling
& know that even though I may not understand it all,God does. It’s
just like His calling that He has for me for missions.I thought that He
was calling me to be a missionary but I wasn’t exactly sure of
how/where I was suppose to go.In these past few months God has been
revealing a lot.I’ve been able to see all of these little things that
God has placed in my life to get my attention about becoming a
missionary in Ireland.I can’t wait to meet everyone!!
