So World Race.

Why this crazy, amazing adventure? Here’s the back story about how we decided to go on World Race. If you have questions about what World Race is, where we’re going, and how all this is financed, this World Race Q&A should help. And speaking of finances, this post covers our World Race budget and where all the money goes and how you can support us as missionaries.

We decided it was important to us to know as much as we could about the 11 countries we’ll be going to – here’s a complete list of the countries our World Race route is taking us to.

And packing – oh, my! How on earth to condense our life down to 1 backpack and 1 daypack each! This is our works-in-progress World Race packing list for married couples. We’ll keep you updated on what we actually end up taking, and will give you an after-the-race-is-over review of what we loved, what was unnecessary, and what we wished we’d brought.

Long story short – we are THRILLED to be going! This will absolutely be the adventure of a lifetime, and we’re especially excited we get to do World Race as a married couple. We will be documenting our World Race adventure on our blog, which you can visit HERE –> www.derekandsarahgill.com.

You can also sign up for our monthly newsletter HERE to get updates about our work as missionaries.

Thanks for stopping by – we’re humbled and grateful to be part of this grand adventure loving people and extending the Kingdom.
