All this talk about money has me like ??
But Jesus Himself accepted donations and support so does it actually have to be so weird? I’ll be writing another blog post on what I think about fundraising, my thoughts on it before I started, and what I’ve learned about it since – I’ll share it on 3/11/20. I’ve decided to write a monthly blog on my #WRjourney and share them on the 11th of every month in honor of the 11 countries I’ll be visiting! #11in11
Speaking on monthly, today’s blog is all about how much this journey will cost and what you can do to help! ??
So, the World Race. I’ll be traveling to 11 different countries all over the world, ministering to the lost and serving the Church and trusting God like never before. Sounds amazing right?
How much does it cost?
$17,700. Yep. ??
$17,700 covers all my training, all international travel, housing, ministry work, basic international health insurance, and basic food expenses. I’ll also be saving personally for any necessary vaccines, my passport renewal, all my gear (there’s a whole list & I will make a video sharing what I’m taking!) and a little bit of personal spending money for souvenirs, extra adventures, etc.
How can you help? I’m glad you asked!!
I know I don’t have an extra $17k stored away for a rainy day. BUT a little here and a little there goes a looooonnngggg way! Maybe one big donation is not feasible for you right now, that’s okay! Would you pray about pledging to donate a smaller amount monthly until I launch in October, or even after? ??
What if 5 families pledged $100 monthly for 6 months?
What if 10 families pledged $50 monthly for 6 months?
What if 20 families pledged $25 monthly for 6 months?
What if 50 families pledged $10 monthly for 6 months?

Or if you prefer to give me a donation in person, let me know so we can arrange a time to meet so I can hug your neck! ??

Until the next one,
