I do not have any specific information on the places I will be going to on the world race. As of right now all I know is the 11 different countries and what the WR website has provided me. So I will share the excerpts from the world race website for each country down below so that you, as a supporter, can know where I am headed. Please join me in praying for each of these places!
COSTA RICA– “Your journey will launch in Costa Rica, where you will get to join our ministry partners and share the powerful love of Jesus in slums devastated by gang violence and poverty. There will be opportunities to share the Gospel with local business owners and tourists, and ultimately show this pura vida nation the true source of Life.”
PANAMA- “Alongside our ministry partners, you may meet indigenous tribes scattered throughout the rainforests or connect with the South Asian immigrant population in the emerging capital city. Your team may help out on a coffee farm in the misty volcanic valleys or share the Gospel with university students in this vibrant nation.”
ECUADOR-“See God at work through our ministry partners as you help them care for neglected refugees and abandoned children with special needs. Or share the Gospel with local students while you drink in the stunning surroundings of the snow-capped Andes mountains. During off days, you may zipline through rainforests or hike up an active volcano.”
PERU- “Many of our partners minister in the deepest corners of the Amazon Rainforest, or in the foothills of the Andes Mountains, seeking to convey a clear Gospel and invite people into a deeper understanding of who God is. As you traverse through Peru’s jungle villages, desert expanses, urban plazas, and mountain peaks, you will find the decaying remnants of an ancient empire and many locals who maintain deep ties to their cultural heritage and indigenous beliefs.”
CHILE- “There is a growing movement of Latin American missionaries being sent out from this prosperous nation of booming cities and pristine landscapes. Join our network of ministry partners and be part of activating the local church in Chile.”
JAPAN- “Here you will encounter a very modern country that clings to social tradition and honor. The younger Japanese generation is ready to embrace something other than the rituals of their ancestors. But in this deeply unreached country, many have never heard of the freedom that the Gospel brings.”
CHINA- “Discover a zealous church that is exploding even amidst heavy political and social persecution. Encounter billions of people within China who are hungry for the Gospel of Jesus Christ.”
VIETNAM- “This rapidly developing nation is on the brink of massive change as its younger generation is hungry for Truth. Though the communist government has made it illegal to share your faith, you will teach English as a way to build relationships with locals and hopefully open doors to Gospel conversations with people whose hearts are burning to listen.”
CAMBODIA- “Even after a devastating genocide wiped out a generation, the Cambodian people are moving forward with a hopeful outlook and a generous heart. Join our partners as they minister to local street kids, teach English, and share the hope of the Gospel with locals.”
MALAYSIA- “Though Malaysia is technically a closed country, the people are eager and waiting to hear the Gospel. Build relationships with these diverse communities as you show them a lifestyle of following Jesus.”
INDONESIA- “You may evangelize alongside a local church or work with a team of Bible translators to bring the gift of God’s Word in the local language. Wherever your team is serving, you will have the opportunity to join our passionate partners in revealing the truth of Jesus. “
