Who is Davin?

I know there are some people who don't know Davin stopping by to check out what's going on, so I thought I would share a bit about him. I know he gave a quick overview of who he is but I thought I, his mother, would brag about him a little bit. Davin was born in the highlands of Papua New Guinea and lived there until he was 1 year old, He is now 17 years old, is the oldest of 6 kids, his next sibling is a girl, the rest are all boys. He is an awesome big brother, in fact the younger ones are not happy about the prospect of him leaving. He will be missed terribly. Davin has been homeschooled his whole life, except 2 months, he attended the West Nairobi School in Kenya, Africa, for the last 2 months of kindergarten. Davin's decision to go isn't an isolated event. He is very service oriented. In fact he won the Walton County 4-H Citizenship Award this year. He helps out and serves at our church, he helps alot of people however he can and he serves at a nursing home once a month. Last year he went to Brazil for a month to help family serving as missionaries there. If he was just interested in serving overseas he could go back to Brazil. But he wants the training and disciplin he'll get from YWAM as well. He is considering full time missions as his career so is hoping this will give him a broader view of what is involved. He loves the Lord and is seeking diligently to follow Him. He is doing great about not having a specific time to go, or knowing exactly where but leaving it up to God and allowing Him to decide. Do you have any specific questions? If so send them in a comment and Davin will be happy to answer them! Blessings, Davin's mom
