It's a time of transition right now for me on the race in a few different ways. First of all I'm currently transitioning from Central America to Asia, and believe it or not they're alot different. I became really comfortable with Central America in the short time I was there. And since right now I'm sitting in an airport in South Korea waiting for my flight to Thailand. It's hitting home real hard that it's alot different here. And once again I'm going to be in a new culture feeling uncomfortable and not sure what to do with myself.
The other transition is the fact that my team, Beautiful Feet, is no longer a team. That's huge. I just spent three months building up my relationships with them and becoming thier family. And then comes the curveball, and we split. I love all of them and i can't imagine spending those three months with anyone else.
So that brings me to my next transition, I have a new team! We are the team known as Refreshe'. Our name represents how when we draw near to the well of Christ, we are refreshed by the living water that comes from him and Him alone. I have spent the last few days getting to know all of them a little better and I'm so excited about where god is going to take us and what He will do in us. So let me introduce them to you.
Brandon Boyd
Brandon is my new leader and I'm so pumped I'm on his team. He's willing to go to the hard places for people and ask those tough questions that need to be asked. I cant wait to learn from him and grow with him.
Jordan Dale
Jordan became a really close friend at training camp, and I'm so glad to finally get to journey with him. It's so easy for me to open and transparent with him that I know I'll grow alot with him. I love this guy.
Brenda Basham
Brenda is such a sweet, caring girl. She brings so many fresh perspectives to every conversation that it's impossible to have a boring convo with her.
Channele Givargis
Channele (we call her Coco) is so awesome, you guys no idea. We've already established a secret handshake, and had a ton of awesome laughs. She knows how to make me at ease and trust with what I'm feeling, and that's pretty awesome.
Jordan Fath
Jordan makes it so easy to be myself around her. She can be a little shy and reserved but once you get to know her you can't help but talk all day.
Liz Hipp
And last but not least, I got stuck with Liz again. But seriously I'm so pumped that I get to stay with her. She has become one of my main ministries since being on the race. By that I mean I lead her through Bible studies and discuss all those issues that she is confused about. I absolutely love her and I can only hope that the feeling is mutual.
So, that's just some of the crazy things that I've been going through lately. I'd encourage all of you to check out all my new teammates blogs to get just a glimpse of the people that I'm going to be spending every day with now. The links to all of them are on the sidebar of my blog ( <—- look there).Thank you again to all those who support me and are praying for me. I love all of you.
God Bless.
