Molo, name is Sydney Sample and I am from Little Rock, Arkansas. I am the middle child of 3; I have an older brother, Carter who is married my wonderful sister-in-law, Becca and I have a younger sister Emily, who is basically my best friend. I also have two amazing parents who have not only put up with my relentless pursuit of adventure but have encouraged me through it. I love my family... I am very thankful for them.

From September 2008 to May 2009 I was in Jeffrey's Bay, South Africa as an FYM with Adventures in Missions. Living my life long dream of going to Africa completely wrecked me (in a good way). I fell in love with the people of J-Bay and with the warm culture of Africa. I saw glimpses of the Kingdom come to earth and experienced the body of Christ like never before. 
I have a passion for the overlooked and the oppressed. I have a fire in my bones for the body of Christ to be active in love and to bring holy justice. During my time in Africa I worked with a group of street children and they absolutely stole my heart. They revealed to me the heart of The Father and showed me what true love looks like. I will never forget my boys, and they are daily on my mind. I am a firm believer that there is always hope, and that Christ never overlooks or forgets anyone. My prayer and my dream is to folllow God where ever He dares me to go, no matter how dangerous, how unconventional or how unexpected it may be.
 
"I believe in a God of scandalous grace. It is risky, and yet we are
people of faith, believing that giving is more contagious than
hoarding, that love can convert hatred, light can overcome darkness and
grass can pierce concrete. And now He dares and woos me to come and
follow, to take up my cross, to lose my life to find it..."
