Hello all! 

I am in Thailand and doing well! I have been here for 10 days which seems like ages ago! We have successful finished Training Camp for the new Fusion 2 squad and are heading into the next section, Launch, before they are fully ready for ministry! 

During Training Camp we prepare the squad physically, emotionally, and spiritually.  Our squad must hike over a mile with all their gear in under 20 minutes in the heat of Thailand. This is a new physical requirement for all World Racers. Our whole squad did it in under 20 minutes on only the second try! Amen!

 

We also enjoy teachings on listening prayer, the Holy Spirit, spiritual warfare, identity, discipleship, and much more. The teachings create a place for the squad to dig into their own brokenness and bring heart healing. A lot of bonds of shame and fear were cast off of this squad! It was so wonderful to take part in!

During Launch the racers will learn practically things about life on the race.  They will learn about cultural sensitivities, feedback, conflict resolution, living in community, and the World Race culture.  The whole squad is very open and teachable. I can already see God moving in this squad and stirring up hearts. They are wanting more of Him and more for their lives and others. 

Thank you all for being a part of my adventures!  God is taking me to places that are sharpening me personally as well. I cannot even begin to describe the way He is challenging me and my character. I feel the hot iron of refinement already as He points out my own pride, selfishness, and fears.  I am excited to come away from this year looking more like Him! 

I will post again to you soon! Thank you all for your love and support!  For donations please click the “Support Me” tab. Thanks!!
