FAQ’s about this adventure:
Q) Where are you going?
A) Cambodia, Thailand, India, Atlanta, GA. (In that order… so far)
Q) Are you scared/nervous?
A) Surprisingly no! I was terrified before training camp. I felt unprepared and doubting my calling to this. NOW, I have never felt more ready for anything. I am not scared of getting sick (I get sick all of the time in US, so what’s the difference?). I just feel great about it. I trust the God I am following, and trust the fellow believer’s I am walking next to. If anything, I am afraid of falling in love with a ton of children and having to leave them…
Q) Are you crazy??
A) After I explain what I am going, I get asked this a lot. Crazy? Me? Possibly… Still being determined. But really, what am I doing that is so crazy? I am going to be the hope, light, and truth of God to those who think there is no hope or light in their world. I think I’d be crazy if I DIDN’T do this. Just bein honest.
Q) What will you be doing over there?
A) Honestly, no idea. I normally make something up to give some assurance to people that I know what I am doing… but in all honesty… yea, I don’t know. And I kind of like that. (I’m type B). Following God. That’s what we’ll be doing. Working with local contacts ministering those affected by Human Trafficking. I’m just pumped.
Q) What are you going to do when you come back?
A) ??? No idea. I know that I am called to do God’s work here in earth. So, whatever He calls me to do, is well, what I’ll be doing. As I pray about this here and now, I know that He is preparing for a BIG LIFE SWITCH. No idea what that will look like… So, I’ll wait and see.
Q) When do you leave?
A) I have an answer to this now!! I leave January 15 from Seattle Washington for Cambodia. I am planning on flying to Seattle a few days before to explore Seattle and hang with my squad mates
Q) How are you going to stay in touch??? Blog?? Email?? Will you have internet??
A) First off, what did people do before internet? And YES I will have some internet access. I hope to blog a ton (meaning 2X/10days or so). Go to the alert me spot to the left of this page; add your email and you’ll get updates. I will be able to Skype… So email l me if you want to set up a time to chat via video. Email, most def. Updates on YOUR life would be amazing.
Q) Why are you doing this? What made you decide?
A) Next blog to come… but its good stuff…
Lastly, if YOU have questions you’d like answered, please ask, and I’ll try to answer… AND if it’s a really good question, I might just answer it in another post.
Final Quote: It’s going to be good.
