Growing up, she loved to read, and would often get in trouble for staying up until 4 in the morning reading books.
Gracie likes sushi :]
Gracie once wanted to be a sniper in the military. [Yeah this was before she knew Jesus like she knows Him now, lolz]
Gracie absolutely loves the arts. She goes to broadways, plays, operas, and classical concerts every opportunity she gets.
Because she read growing up, Gracie is very knowledgable concerning the Kings & Queens of England and the royalty of Europe.
Gracie enjoys paintballing :]
Gracie is not your average girl--She HIGHLY enjoys gaming, whether it be console games or computer games. Star Craft is one of her many favorites.[Hence the screen name Protosschick99 :D] She can spend hours in an arcade or playing console/PC games at home :D
When you total up all of Gracie's brothers and sisters, [Step, half, and full] She has a total of 5 sisters and 5 brothers.
Though she has no pictures--Gracie is required to wear glasses. [Contacts are her escape, lolz.]
Few ppl know that Gracie can understand and type 1337 Speak. [Example: i r t3h 1337 lik 0mg4wd!!!!!!11135435] lolz :D
In highschool, a lot of her peers considered Gracie one of the smartest girls in school.
One of Gracie's pet peeves are spelling errors.
Gracie has a very laid back personality and is always open for a spur of the moment kinda thing :]
Though she tries not to show it, Gracie wears her heart on her sleeve.
Gracie thinks Xena: Warrior Princess is the b0mb! She cares not what anyone else says, Xena is tight in her eyes :].
Gracie has a habit of playing new songs or CD's she gets over and over and over and over until everyone in her household is annoyed, lolz.

Gracie loves the outdoors. Camping+Hiking=t3h 1337!! :D
Gracie is the only person she knows who gets excited as if at a rock concert when she hears her favorite classical/Baroque music :D
Gracie has never had a normal life. Her life has been filled with challenges, obstacles, desires, greatness, tragedies, and unfortunate situations. She has a VERY colorful life--And she knows that these things have been preparing her for what God has called her to do :]
Gracie takes Dance Dance Revolution VERY SERIOUSLY. It HIGHLY annoys her when ppl purposely sabotage her movements or they play music louder than her game so that way she cannot hear. DON'T do that, lolz :P
Gracie misses her family and friends in California...
Before I begin: Oh my gosh!! It's like a dream come true!! Xena Warrior Princess & Techno Music rolled into one!! It's one of my favorite techno songs too!! I'm soo jolly!!
..
There is so much I can say about myself but where can I begin? I'm not the same person that I use to be many many moons ago, lolz.
I know what I can say:
My life as a "Not Your Ordinary Christian" began 6 years ago. Where my life was radically changed for Jesus Christ on a beach in Hawaii!
All my life I've always had this tug on my heart to travel. I wanted to travel all over the world as a part of my job. Little did I know back then, that it was God calling me to the nations. I now know as I've grown in Christ, that I am called to the nations but not only that--To be in the business arena as well.
I have soo many goals I'd like to accomplish and know that I will because with God--I can do all things through Christ! :D
Well enough of that--I'm not your ordinary girl that's for sure. I love Jesus with all my heart, not only that but I know who I am in Christ, I'm a VERY BIG gamer (Shoot 'em up, RPG's, DDR, etc :D), paint balling is TEH b0mB yo, lolz. Basically--I'm like this tom boy trapped in a gurly gurl's body, lolz :P
I've come a loooooong way and I owe that all to Jesus! If you had known me before I was saved and then after--It's like TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT ppl! God works! The Word works! I'm a living, breathing, walking testamony myself :]
When it comes to ministry, now that right there is a no-brainer. (Besides the nations :D)I love youth, the youth are my heart. God has also been opening my heart up to children as well. My vision for the youth of my church is to watch God move upon them sooo strongly, that they become instantly sold out for Christ after sitting in on one of our Holy Ghost services.
I know that I have a word for youth--The Lord has told me that "I have a word for young ppl!" And based on that and what I feel in my heart, I've run with it--And I am coninuallly striving to be that example. The one thing that keeps me going, is that I keep in mind that there is someone depending on me to live right. There is a young person out there who looks up to me and maybe that one word, hug, or smile will get them to the kingdom.
I gotta remain sharp--Because ppl are depending on me--And I WILL NOT let them down. It's time to get our rear's in gear and step it up!! Because the youth of today NEED us! They cry out for help!
My heart is for the youth, I love them all. Each and every one of them :]
>>Anointed & Appointed End Time Missionary Leader!!<<
**Jesus is the Lord of my life and I love Him with all my heart!
**My heart is for Thailand and various other nations!
**I long for the day that God will tell me to take my stuff and go to the nations when I'm ready!
**A Missionary's life is where I'm headed! :D
**I'm very good ground! You sow into me and God will return it to you 100 full!! (Luke 6:38 - "Give and it will come back to you, good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over.")

Hey Dude! :) Hope you and Steven are doing great. Hello from the other side of the world! WHOOOT! Dustan and I are doing really well. Recovering from jet lag. We've been constantly traveling with our backpacks on our backs and on the go up till yesterday evening. So nice to finally be in Indonesia, and able to settle in a bit for the next 27 days. It's so beautiful here. I've been taking pictures of the scenery left and right. It's simply amazing. We're being well taken care of by our friends. We will be speaking tonight with some young people about what were doing and encouraging them. We will be speaking with a group of trainees who're being trained to reach their own people group. Looking forward to it. Right now we're getting re-freshed and prayed up. I had my 1st "Mandi" experience, which means bath. The baths here are nothing like home. It's basically a basin of water which you dip a small bucket into and dump the water over yourself. It's not so bad...but the water is ICY-COLD so...that was something else....yeah....yeah...that's all I want to say about that. Hehe. I was hesitant at 1st, but now that I tried it, it's not so bad....well no, it's bad, yes it's definitely bad, but it's duable. :p I'm definitely missionary living now! Hah.
Dustan and I love yall so much. I look forward to hearing from you about the wedding plans and all. Appreciate the prayers girl! We can definitely feel them! It's great that we have internet while we're hear so we'll be able to stay in touch. :)
