(Drumroll, please…)
You might see her sitting quietly in a corner, with serenity written all over her face. But when this soft-spoken gem has something to say, it is said with wisdom and confidence.
Ever since I met Bekah Shearin personally, just a little over a month ago, I have had great respect for her. Her presence is calming and peaceful, and she resonates with the joy of the Lord. Bekah is one of the other 6 people on my World Race team, and is a desert girl from Albuquerque, New Mexico. Our team was honoured to have her mother and aunt at launch, as the only family on our team that came to launch.
Although Bekah readily admits to being a quiet and more reserved person, she makes great effort to step out of her comfort zone to make relationship with others. Bekah is very gifted as a writer and a worship leader. She communicates well through her blogs, and I will probably share her blog a lot (because she is a great writer, but mostly because I am lazy!!:0 We are also very excited to have her gift as a worship leader on our team. She also shows a great sense of adventure and humor… Her story of scaring off a black bear with an empty paintball gun, was truly entertaining for our team! Bekah is also very level headed, and usually the one on the team who is on time, knows the schedule, and basically keeps the team functioning in an orderly fashion. This is much appreciated by the team, and although she may frustrated by those of us who are more scatterbrained (i.e. ME!!:0), she never shows impatience!
I could not be more excited to know Bekah better as a team mate and ‘sister’, and I am sure I will have so much more to say about her after living with her for 11 months!!
FYI… our team decided that each of us would introduce one person on our team, and we will be sharing each other’s blogs, so hopefully you will be introduced to each person on my team!!
Blessings!
