Summer 1996, Michelle joined a campaign group from Harding University, coordinated by Spanish professor Ava Conley. The entire group visited the cities of Maracay and Barquisimeto.
Michelle stayed an additional three weeks in order to follow up with all of the contacts made through the evangelistic campaign in Maracay. During that additional time, “the missions bug bit hard” when Michelle first experienced the Holy Spirit speak through her with a level of fluency and spiritual wisdom that she knew were beyond her own capabilities. She was hooked.
