Welcome to my very first attempt at blogging. This summer, I am working as a legal intern with International Justice Mission in South Asia, assisting with child sex trafficking casework. This is a labor of love; I'm quite inspired by the work of Mother Teresa, who devoted her life to pouring love into people who were considered "untouchables." The title of this blog, love is in the loving, comes from
Mother Teresa, who once said:
"The success of love is in the loving (...) There is the love expressed in the service and the love in the contemplation. It is the balance of both which we should be striving for. LOVE is the key to finding this balance."
This summer, I will do my best to keep yall posted as I strive, through grace, to balance love in service and love in thought as we fight oppression and injustice in South Asia.
Hey Girl! Marci just sent me the link to your blog! I am SOOOOOO excited for you and all that you will learn and experience this summer with IJM! I love love love the work they are doing to bring freedom and justice. Hoping this summer changes your life forever!
