At this rate I’m beginning to think that maybe I should have gotten a degree in some sort of marketing or advertising instead of Outdoor Recreation. Over the course of about a week I’ve somehow finagled my way into three different varieties of interviews. Saturday an article ran in The Alpena News. Check that out here: Globe trotter in The Alpena News!
This, however, is the crazy part of the story….
While in Bucharest, Romania in May my team (and Bannah) had the opportunity to work alongside a lovely couple from New Zealand. Before we parted our separate ways one of our teammates exchanged contact info. So, here we are, six months later…..and I am in New Zealand (who’d a guessed?!). Upon my arrival here I sent Chris and Raewyn an e-mail informing them of our current visit to New Zealand, and the plans we have to bring two squads in January. A few days later I got a phone call from Chris informing me that his sister happens to work for the Christian broadcasting station. A few MINUTES later I got a call from his sister and we discussed hypothetically being interviewed on the radio. We ended the call with a “I’ll see what I can do, but I’m can’t guarantee anything” sort of tone. A few days after that I get a call from the radio host requesting a live interview a few days later! Check out the interview here: Radio interview with Radio Rhema in New Zealand!
As if getting an interview on the radio wasn’t just crazy, I then received an e-mail from the Christian TV station requesting that they also get an opportunity to interview us after the radio. HA! So for anyone who may have been wondering whether or not Casey and I have the Lord’s favor, the answer is clearly yes, yes we do. Turns out God is pretty good at marketing his how is kingdom is coming here to Earth! That’s you World Race. RISE UP!
