Say hello to missionary Katie!


Hello! My name is Katie Vaughan and I will be traveling this year to Peru along 
with my mom, as apart of the medical team (I want to be a Doctor when I grow up…).  
 I am 15 years old and LOVE to travel. I have traveled to South Korea three times 
and have also visited Australia! I am excited to travel for the first time to South 
America!!!! :)   I love learning new languages and experiencing different cultures. 
In fact, I am going on my third year of Spanish at the high school level, so I am super 
excited to test out my 
Spanish skills. Throughout my life I have watched my mom on many accounts travel to these 
South American countries on mission trips, and have admired her greatly for it. She’d always tell 
me “When you’re older.” I was always sad, but I now realize experiences like this are life 
changing, and sometimes you just need to wait until God calls you.  And finally my time has 
come to experience this amazing opportunity, and I couldn’t be more thankful for it. If you know 
me I am a kind hearted person who loves to help people. I would love nothing more than to know 
that I could make such a big impact on a person’s life…   
It makes me get that warm and fuzzy feeling inside when I know that I 
did something not for myself, but for God and those who really do need it.  I want to be not 
only a role model for them but I want to set a good example for my country and the people 
who live in it as well. I am so excited! I am counting down the days!!! See you then!
Peace &
