Well, I have been home for
about 5 weeks now. I have
definitely enjoyed the HOT showers, cooking, driving a car, having a REAL
toilet, and all of the other luxuries in America. It’s been fun spending the holidays with family, visiting friends,
telling countless numbers of stories, and showing many pictures from the last
year. But, the most common
question that people keeping asking me is “What’s Next”?
Well . . . . .
First off I just
want to say, “Thank You, Thank You, Thank You” to everyone who supported me
over the last year. Your
encouraging emails, blog comments, facebook messages, prayers, financial
support, etc. is what made this last year possible and I couldn’t have done it
with out YOU!
At Final Debrief in Brasov, Romania.
Okay . . . so the
answer you have been waiting for . . .
I am currently living with my parents and traveling
back and forth to Oklahoma City occasionally to work at my previous job as a
Consultant Dietitian. I will be
doing this through the end of March 2011.
Then . . . it will
be time once again to load my backpack and head to SPAIN!!! I will be leaving April 1st
to attend Generation 42 (G42) leadership academy’s 6-month internship. G42 is a network of Christ-followers
with the same mission to plant churches, businesses, and ministries to spread
the Kingdom of God around the world – to inspire and develop leaders who are
passionate about laying their lives down for Christ. Over the past 11 months, I have grown in so many ways and
this growth has given me a desire to grow even more. Thus, the reason for the G42 internship; to continue growing
and preparing for God’s will in my life.

Please pray for me
as I begin the next phrase of my life.
Your prayers are so powerful and sustained me the past 11 months in
everything I encountered on the World Race. If you feel led to also support me financially during this
time, please go to http://www.g42leadershipacademy.org/donate and click on the “Intern Support”
