Our time here has been filled with laughs, tears, sunshine and rain.  Mostly rain.  But through it all we as a J squad are asking for more.  Caroline cast a vision for our squad that we not take a step down because we have energy drained from us but rather we take a step and press in that much harder.  We lean in.  We go for it with each new location. 
 
Today was our debrief day.  Caroline and I sat down with each team to ensure that we closed out this country and prepared our hearts for what’s next.  Any dirty laundry was “aired out” in the meetings and we get ready to welcome back one of our squad members from the US (Shannon).  Ireland has taught me a lot about stepping up and stepping into the anointing that God has placed over my life at this time.  And though we move on from this country, the issues and struggles that hover over this place still exist and must be broken off.  We must continue to pray for Ireland, it is very different from the third-world countries that I’ve grown accustomed to on the World Race.  Here, apathy, alcoholism, and suicide reign.  May it no longer in Jesus’ name.  Pray also for safe travel with no hassle tomorrow as we head to Romania!!  We are so excited!
 
I will be staying with Brandy’s team for the first part of the month so you’ll see ministry from their team in several of my blogs.  But before I sign off for the night, I wanted to post this video that I just made.  I hope you enjoy it.  Oh, and these cliffs you may know as “The Cliffs of Insanity”.  Name that movie.
