What’s your full name?
Kimberly Morgan Pratt
Where are you from?
Amarillo, Texas.
When is your birthday?
July 9th, 1992.
Do you have siblings?
One sister and four dogs. I consider the dogs siblings because my parents love us all the same.
What college did you go to?
West Texas A&M University in Canyon, Texas.
Why did you choose the world race?
I decided to say “yes” to missions after I ran from the calling for a long time. I was content with my life. I wanted to come to a place where I was completely dependent on the Lord. I interviewed with another missions organization and they just weren’t for me. I stumbled on the World Race application and filled it out. I believe God has called every single one of His children to “go”. Although “go” can look different for everyone, over seas missions is where I am called to right now. As cliche as it sounds I didn’t choose the World Race, The Lord chose the race for me.
Which country are you most excited to go to any why?
Jamaica. I went to Jamaica my senior year and fell in love with the people.
If you were given 1 million dollars, what would you do with it?
Buy season tickets to the New York Rangers, buy my dad a new car, donate to my mothers school, pay my sister to move home, fund all of my teammates and of course, bless others in random ways.
If you could have dinner with 1 person, living or dead, who would it be and why?
Peter. He’s the bomb. I wanna ask what went through his head when he got out of that boat and walked on water.
What is your biggest fear?
Driving over really tall highways.
What will your last meal be before we leave on the World Race?
Chick Fil A kids meal with milk and a cookie, and a spicy McChicken with no lettuce
What are some of your favorite song lyrics right now?
“Build Your kingdom here
Let the darkness fear
Show Your mighty hand
Heal our streets and land
Set Your church on fire
Win this nation back
Change the atmosphere
Build Your kingdom here
We pray”
This song has become the cry of my heart.

What is your favorite social media?
Instagram…they all consume too much of my time!
If you could fit 1 person in your pocket for the next 11 months, who would it be and why?
My best friend Shelby, because she would totally thrive on the mission field and we would get to experience everything together!
What’s your favorite childhood memory?
Going to hockey games with my daddy!
If money were not an option, what is one thing you would want to do before you leave on the World Race?
Fund everyone who is currently signed up for the Race. #fundraisingisexhausting and change the date my church is going to middle school camp so i could join.
What animal represents you and why?
A pig, because they are always down to eat.
What’s your dream job?
Working at a summer camp for youth. (of course hiring someone to do the business side of it.)
What’s your greatest achievement and how has it shaped you?
Wow this one was hard. My greatest achievement would have to be interning at my church. Once again, this had nothing to do with who I am but everything to do with who He is. God is faithful. God is good and through that internship I learned so much about God’s love, character, goodness and faithfulness.
Who is your personal hero?
I would say my parents. My daddy hasn’t always have the best life but he has shown constant compassion and love to a world who has shown him much less. I haven’t always made life easy on my parents but my mom was always the first person to be there for me. She’s hard working and loves unconditionally. Everyone should be more like Fred and Linda.
