About the Guest
Josie Burdin
hi! I just graduated from Old Dominion University with a Bachelor’s in Exercise Science, and I am starting graduate school at ODU to get my Doctorate in Physical Therapy in a few weeks. I recently came to faith in early 2023 (woohoo!). I love to spend my free time weightlifting, hanging out with friends, listening to music, at the beach, and watching sports! I went on my first mission trip this past March to the Dominican Republic with the Filter of Hope organization to provide water filters to those who do not have access to clean water, as well as the gospel. I plan to be a ODU Cru leader this upcoming school semester, and am excited for the path the Lord is putting me on.
