So i guess i'm the slow one to jump on this blogging page. I just figured it out so i should be posting more regularly. My name is Mark McCoy and i'm 20 years old. I currently attend University of Illinois at Chicago and have been living downtown Chicago for the past 2 years. I am a business management major and have a year or so left on my degree. Since i was young i have always felt a strong calling to mission work, "being the hands and feet of the lord". I have been on a few trips throughout jr high and high school but nothing compared to the length and experience we are all about to involve ourselves in starting January. Interests: I am a very outgoing, active guy. I love being outside and getting myself involved with anything i can. I am very involved with music and love singing and playing the drums. For me, a big part of worship is done through music so i plan to bring a hand drum along to kenya and am hoping we have someone who can play guitar coming along. I am very excited to meet all of you! Departure is coming soon! 

because he lives,
