Thanks for visiting my blog. My name is Emily, and I have been teaching 6th grade math for 2 years and have given up my classroom in order to explore the world. In September 2013, I will be departing for an 11 month mission's trip to 11 countries. I will be staying in each country for one month and working on various outreaches in hopes to reach several people with the gospel of Jesus Christ. I will be visiting China, Thailand, Cambodia, Malaysia, Philippines, Albania, Bulgaria, Romania, Kenya, Uganda, and Rwanda. I will not be certain which cities I will be visiting or what we will be doing until just before we go. I will also be taking only one backpack of my belongings for the trip. The idea is to learn to live simple and trust God for all my needs. Our team will be writing about our experiences on this World Race website.
I hope you will feel led to support me in this journey in prayer or financially. Check out the Support Me link to see how you can help out. I need both monthly supporters and one-time gifts, in order to raise $15,500 for the year. Every little bit helps and would be very meaningful. Also, please feel free to leave comments as it will be encouraging to hear from friends and family when being far from home.
I hope you will enjoy reading what God is teaching me this year and in the year to come.
