I WIll BE GOING ON THE WORLD RACE!
.….The World What?
To my dear dear friends and family…No i am not talking about the TV show the Amazing Race 
You goobers! I am talking about something far more wonderful!
The World Race is an 11 month spiritually led mission trip to 11 countries around the world. One of the unique things about the World Race is that it’s not only a mission trip but also an intensive discipleship program designed to launch my generation into our specific kingdom calling. Through the World Race, my team and I will serve in partnership with churches and ministries in local communities to preach the Gospel, plant churches, work in orphanages, minister to women and children trapped in prostitution as a result of human trafficking, and bring the restorative hope of God’s love to many tribes and nations.
The Lord found me, and had to whack me over the head with a heavenly 4×4, to get me to see that THIS TRIP was what I was supposed to be doing this next year. While I was still in denial that this was His plan for me and applying to jobs, He used incredible people in my life to speak encouraging words and pray for me so frequently. Prophetic words were spoken to me as well, words of “losing myself” and “allowing the Lord to fill my heart with HIS LOVE instead of trying to look for it in other places.” He reached me in worship and tore down walls I had up for so long. He brought me to tears so many times over the last couple months discovering the joy I had been craving so much. He entered my heart and let vulnerability be a beautiful thing as I was interviewed with details of my story I was not used to before. I felt so FREE! I can’t fathom how deep His love goes as I feel like I am just scratching the surface going into this next year!
With great prayer, divine conversations, months of interviews, and many sleepless nights I knew that I was called to join Adventures in Missions (ADV) on The World Race. I am stoked knowing my team gets to go on a crazy journey this next year to Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Japan, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Swaziland, Zimbabwe or Botswana, and South Africa! I mean, YAY GOD! As the classic Pixar Film “Up” would say….
