Hi Friends!
I just got back from Training Camp for the World Race and it was one of the most amazing 11 days of my life! It was a time filled with trying new foods, learning about different cultures, ministry training, healing, praying, worshipping, and learning how to navigate spending a year living in constant community with my squamates.
There are 3 Routes launching in October and I got to meet all 99 people from those 3 squads this past week.
My squad is a group of 37 that will be traveling together over the next year. Once we get to each country we will split off in groups of 6-7 to do different ministries.
My team is a group of 6 that I will be doing life with for at least the first couple of months. It is possible for team changes throughout the year!
For now, I will be working with 5 other amazing women and we have named ourselves Vessels of Joy!
Let me introduce you to my team!
