I’m Maggie! I grew up just north of Chicago. I was home schooled up till 8th grade. I spent most of my life in my backyard and in the trees, beating up boys bigger than me (of course just playing round). I used to make little animals my pets and collect caterpillars.
Now that I graduated high school and am so much more mature cause I don’t collect caterpillers, I spend my free time painting, going to the beach, hanging with friends and meeting new people, I do just random stuff for fun, Blitz is my favorite card game! I don’t watch TV or listen to Ipods much, I hardly shave my legs but, I love to bike! I enjoy sitting on m
y porch and soaking up the sun God gave us!
I worked at a local grocery store called Piggly Wiggly, which I loved because it is a way that I can serve my community and show the love of Christ. Even just through a SIPMLE SMILE!
One of my favorite passages in the Bible is in Acts about the early church and how they were a community sharing everything and because of the way they live their lives more and more people came to see who Jesus Christ is. It boggles my mind every time I read it!
A life verse for me lately has been Romans 12, the whole thing! I want to be a living sacrifice to God, someone who is holy and pleasing to Him.
Currently I am living involved in a community at Adventures In Mission called Community Life. Which basicly means being intentional with relationship within the group of people I live with. I have 11 housemates which is a blast! 
I intern at AIM in the Admissions dept. doing paperwork and phone calls, I enjoy talking on the phone and helping people with needs!
Hi Maggie:
Nice to hear you are on your path to service. I know God will use you because you are willin to GO! Use that smile, energy and most of all passion to change the world for Him.
Cute Bio, love the leg comment. (LOL)
Get some pictures up on this thing and if you need any from Jamaica last year, let me know.
Thanks for the nice letter.
God is good.
In His grip,

The person that homeschooled you should have taught you better writing skills!
Seriously tho, I believe your passion for life continues to grow as you learn more about our lovely Creator. Continue to strive to be holy.
Love you, Mom

Well, while we were cramming six us us into a tent for a cozy nights sleep, one of our youth leaders backed up his truck and the rear tire came through the wall of the tent. I was sleeping on the outside and it ripped my hair out and totally hurt my head. I normally have long hair, but I had just gotten a buzz cut for the trip, so that tire came wayyy too close! I was in shock for the rest of the night, but it was pretty awesome.
Wow, that sounds pretty intense! Hope that doesn’t happen under my watch!
By the way, hi to you too heather! I’m glad you are all excited for this trip!
