In mid-November, I flew to Washington for the last time as Danae Ralls. Just over two weeks later, on December 4th, I married my best friend and the love of my life!
In mid-January, we had to say goodbye to Danny’s dad as he passed away and was then in a much better place. This was a very difficult time for us, but God gave us strength and unified our family even more than before.
Soon after, God spoke to our hearts and started preparing us for something big.
In February 2011, Danny and I felt that God was leading us into a new stage of our life. We joined a pioneering team that would later move to the Dominican Republic to expand the Kingdom of Heaven in the eastern part of the country.
In July and August 2011 we had several teams of people come that we got to serve and encourage as they joined us in loving the community here in the Dominican Republic.
As I look at my life, God has ALWAYS been there for me. He has taught me so many
things, which above all has been about His love for me. Out of that love, I have the privilege, honor and responsibility to love others by sharing God’s love with them. I could have never told you 10 years ago what exactly I would be doing now. However, it was 10 years ago that I had my first taste of what missions is, and God hasn’t stopped rocking my world ever since.
This past year has truly been a year full of blessings, and I know that this NEW year has many blessings to discover and experience as my husband and I continue to follow
God’s leading and His desire to see us looking to Him to fulfill our lives with His love.
