Tomorrow morning I head out to start my last full month on the field. Many of you may not know but I ended up staying out on the field a month longer than expected and I am now going into my fifth month on the field.
Originally we were planned to head straight to Israel for the month but the Feast of Tabernacles is happening at the beginning of October, which makes it very difficult and expensive for us to travel to Israel. So our incredible logistics people have found us some friends to work alongside in Turkey(there has recently been flooding in Turkey) for 10 days and then we head to Israel until the end of October. At that point I will transition home to Texas for a while in between the few debriefs that I will travel to for the June Squad. I am committed to walking alongside this squad until their final debrief at the beginning of May. During the time in between I will still be working with The World Race helping to further advance the Kingdom of God.
I have seen a good response from supporters financially for this race but I am still lacking $2,000 for this year. My prayer is that God would have me fully support raised by October 30, 2009, which means I need people to pray with me for this to happen and I also need people to respond to the call financially.
This past week four World Race squads, alumni and staff came together in Brasov, Romania to worship, pray and activate ourselves spiritually. It has been incredible to watch as many of the racers have opened themselves up to the Holy Spirit and allowed him to renew and rebuild their hearts. Ultimately we want to be the generation to see Jesus Christ return to the Earth and it was incredible to see at least 300 people gathered together who are determined to help multiply the Kingdom of God on Earth as it is in Heaven.
I know the Lord has called me to lead this squad for many reasons and it has been incredible to watch them learn and grow and claim their identity and strength in the Lord God almighty. Thank you for your support and prayers. Please continue to pray that God would give me vision for this squad and give me eyes to direct them so that they can further advance the Kingdom of God.
