Y’all would you believe it?! We are just under a MONTH away from
Christmas! This also means I am just 7 WEEKS away from flying out of the US to travel the world doing missions work for 11 whole months! Time is literally flying by and I am trying my best to soak in all the moments and love in these last days of being home.
BUT HOLD ALL THE PHONES YALL!
I have a HUGE praise report for everyone! Due to a couple of very generous donations I recently received, I have officially surpassed my next fundraising goal mark of $10k, which is INCREDIBLE! A goal that seemed so impossible was poured into abundantly out of the hands of just a few generous people that wanted to shower their love and support over me, and what Gods doing through me within The World Race! The significance of these couple donations and the $10k goal is that I am officially funded enough to be able to launch in January! WHAT IS LIFE YALL!? God has been blowing my mind with the people He has been intersecting my story with, and they’re truly getting better and more miraculous by the day!
It‘s insane to think that at the start of the year I was looking at raising $19,200, and that at this time, I am not only funded enough to officially leave, but I only have $8,630 left to raise to be FULLY FUNDED! This has ONLY come from the abundance of your willingness and generosity, and I am truthfully and eternally grateful to each of you; every prayer, message, dollar, or act of support is paving the way for this dream to become a reality… and by the grace of God, we’re doing it!
With all of that being said, I wanted to send you information about my other two fundraising partnerships! Keys for the Journey has been extended through December, but Go Rings ends TODAY! These are great because they involve not only you giving to great causes, but getting something in return!
Go Rings:
“Go Rings was originally created as a way to fundraise for an 11-month mission trip to 11 countries (The World Race!) The venture was funded quickly, but the rings just kept selling! The product & purpose proved to be contagious and, well, ended up accidentally starting a business.
We provide an actual solution to one of the biggest problems every charitable cause faces: fundraising. That’s why up to 30% of your purchase goes to individuals & organizations who partner with us monthly, raising money to go do good.
We’re committed to creating handcrafted, ethically-made jewelry, while equipping those who are going out and spreading some light across our world.”
Go Rings is amazing cause it’s not only run by two girls that also took part in going on The World Race, but the pieces are all handmade and made of sterling silver or 14k gold! They’re delicate and classy, yet also wear-with-anything-anywhere kind of jewelry! These pieces are PERFECT for Christmas and birthday gifts— and the site also has special online deals going on right now, with some newly released pieces!
Visit gorings.com and select my name at checkout! You not only get beautiful jewelry to wear, but you also help to support my trip on The Race!
Keys for the Journey:
(partnership extended through December!)
“Everyone has an area of their life in which they desire to grow. Something they want to cultivate. At the same time, the Lord is always leading us into an area of growth in our lives. The Christian life is not one of stagnation but of constant maturing. Keys for the Journey began because in order to have growth in our lives we need to be sure we are focusing on the thing we desire to grow in. Intentionally seeking the Lord and asking Him to help us in that development.
Keys for the Journey exists to empower people to journey with the Lord in a specific area of their lives. Through the wearing of a word, you carry a tangible reminder to be in prayer over that area of your life.
Once you’ve experienced the growth the Lord has for you with that word, you then hand it off to someone else. In giving the word away, you empower others so they can have their own journey with it. Keys for the Journey is about unlocking the Kingdom of God in your own life and the lives of others.”
Keys for the Journey was also started by a World Racer! These organizations are completely kingdom centered and missions minded! In purchasing my key, I did the “ask for a word” option, in which Austin Ulsh (the founder) will seek the Lord to find what to put on your key. Mine was 2 Corinthians 5:17 which states “Therefore you are a new creation in Chrust; the old has gone and the new has come.” A verse so dear to my heart and such a definer of my testimony that I was almost in disbelief when I received it. But God knew that’s what I needed to keep holding onto; the promise that the old me is gone, and my new identity rests in my purposes from God. I hold onto this key and pray over it every day I wear it. And I cannot WAIT to get to pass it onto someone new in the future!

In short:
My Go Rings partnership lasts ends TODAY! So now is the time! Keys has been extended through December— woo hoo! But they both help me immensely in this fundraising process! If you feel led, be a part of joining this journey with me and snag some of these beautiful, hand made items! Each purchase is fostering in the bigger picture of the kingdom of Gods love and all that He will be doing in and through me on this trip to reach the world with His goodness!
To every single one of your eyes reading these words; thank you. Thank you for loving me, supporting me, and pouring into something that I believe in so fully to transform our Earth with joy. This whole thing is so much bigger than jewelry and t-shirt sales and dollar bills, but its the little things that propel the big things to happen. I will be the first to tell you that I’m living in the fruits of your generosity, and things are happening y’all… big, BIG things are happening!
I love you all more than words can say! ♥?Lets keep going!
