Y'all. This is for real.
For. Realzies.
WE GOT OUR LAUNCH INFO YESTERDAY!!!!
{insert ecstatic scream here}
*On September 6th I will be driving down to Atlanta to meet with the other leaders and begin the 4 days of preparation known as “Launch.”
On September 7th, the rest of the squad will be joining us.
On September 10th, we will head to the nations- beginning with Kenya. And I am thrilled. And terrified.
I was chosen as a team leader. I haven't talked about that yet, because, honestly, I've spent the last 10 days trying to figure out what that means.
But. I CAN say that I am excited and honored to serve five of the most precious women I have ever met as I lead this team of God-fearing women around the world. My role, as I see it, is to serve, inspire, and enable these incredible women to utilize their unique giftings as we serve the world and love the Lord together. I have so much to learn from each of them. This is going to be an incredible 11 months, and I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful group of women to enjoy it with.
