My dear friends,
I graduate in exactly four days and then leave for training camp in Georgia in exactly a week. I will then come home for all of June and leave for The Race the very beginning of July. Most likely I will be launching from Washington DC.
I am so extremely overwhelmed by the generosity and support of each and every one of you. To be honest the nerves are really starting to set in but I can feel your prayers and they bring a blanket of peace upon me. I keep purchasing more of the items I need for the trip and getting so excited with every new thing I get. I cannot wait to see they ways in which the Lord is going to use this journey, and all of us through it.
With the support of you all, my churches, and some babysitting money my account now has $7,130 in it! That means I only need $8,370 in order to be fully funded. If I am not fully funded by 6 months into the trip I will be sent home early. I really don’t want that to happen because some of the countries I am most excited about are at the end of the trip. Some of my squad mates are already fully funded which makes me excited and gives me a beacon of hope because I see that it is possible.
Something that would really help me right now is continuous prayer for courage. It is going to be a very intense and all together crazy year. I also would love prayers for community. My squad is so amazing and I am so excited to live and minister with them for a year but it is really hurting me knowing that you all wont be there with me (physically at least). Pray for all my squad mates still needing funds, and for the people in the countries we are going to be working in. Another thing that would be extremely helpful is monthly donors. Pray about it if you haven’t already. Even if it is only about $5 a month it can still make a huge difference. $5 alone will pay for about two and a half days of my food. (Now I sound like one of those commercials. Sorry.)
I really love you all so much. This weekend I was at a graduation party and noticed that so many of you are going out into the community and the world! It made me so excited to see all people in my generation who want to make a difference in the world and not a difference for their recognition but a difference for the Kingdom of God. I cannot wait to compare stories.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
God bless,
Jordan, Jordi, Miss Jordan, JoJo
