I’m leaving Texas in thirteen days and this is pretty much me right now:


(more on those feelings in another bog). For now, here are the top ways to support me before I leave:
Pray, pray, pray!
Thank you for all the prayers you’ve already prayed. Please keep it up! In general, things you can always be praying for include:
- Health and safety of my squad and me
- Protection from spiritual warfare
- Financial provision
- That my team and I would join with the Holy Spirit in the work He’s already doing in each location
- That my team and I would advance the Kingdom of God all over the world
If you’re interested in more detailed prayer requests, subscribe to my blog. If you’d like to be included on an email list to receive monthly prayer request updates, please contact me here. *
Read, comment, and subscribe!
Please keep reading my blog! It promises to get much more interesting once I’m out on the field, so go ahead and subscribe to get automatic notifications when I post. It means so much to me to know that you’re reading my blogs now, and I can guarantee that I’ll be even more delighted to read your comments when we’re separated by a few thousand miles. So please subscribe, read, and comment!
Send me emails!
Please don’t be a stranger this year. Send me emails/Facebook messages/smoke signals with updates on your lives. I want to know all the details, even if you think they’re boring. I’d even be satisfied with a short email just to say hey. I promise to respond, but remember that my response won’t always be timely or long. Seriously though, I really want to hear from you while I’m gone!

Consider contributing.
Thanks to everyone who has contributed to my trip already – you guys are incredible. I’m still not fully funded though. I need $7,371 by June to stay on the Race and finish the ministry God has called me to. Please prayerfully consider joining me on this journey by making a tax-deductible donation here. I also set up a PayPal account where you can donate to fund my personal spending on the field, which might include things like: refilling toiletries, Sabbath day activities, extra equipment, ect. Contact me for more info about that.
If we haven’t hung out yet, let’s do it before I leave!
I’ll mostly be in Bulverde until I fly out on the 5th. I will however be back in Austin from December 31st – January 2nd to celebrate New Year’s. I’d LOVE to hang out with you, and I don’t even care what we do. So please, get in touch with me and let’s spend some quality time together before I leave for a year!
These are the best and most pertinent ways you can support me in the final days before I depart. Thanks again for everything you’ve done to support and encourage me so far. Please have a happy and safe Christmas and New Year’s, everyone!
