I am so blessed to be part of such an awesome and strong squad of God for these next 11 months and beyond. At training camp, we really bonded and learned about each other as a team. We stepped up and took risks. We worked together. We fought for each other and prayed for each other and believed the best of each other. We spoke life and hope over each other and lifted each other up when someone was struggling.
Here’s a sneak peek into some of the amazing people on my “squad”- the larger team that will be traveling to all of the 11 countries together and then breaking into our smaller core teams to serve everyday in different locations within each country. Some months we will all be together to serve as well! Videos included at the end!
These are people who are a crucial part of the squad who still need help meeting their goals to be able to go on the Race next week! Out of our squad of 31 people, there are still 8 that need your help to launch these next 8 days! Take a look:
Jennifer “jenrae” Taylor is a bold, daring and fearless woman of God. She doesn’t believe in impossible and knows our God is bigger. She has an honest heart and is willing to keep going even when it’s hard. She is willing to open up and God is doing something amazing through her! Please help to send her on the Race today! She is trusting God for a miracle as she needs $2500 to be able to launch with us- please challenge yourself to make whatever gift you are able to today to help send Jenn and that you feel led to give!
Emily Poe may be little but she trusts in a huge God and is doing big things for Him! She has such a sweet heart and joyful spirit. Send her on the Race today to make a big difference for 2016 and beyond!
Jenna Gilman’s birthday was the date of this post- January 1st- -Give her a belated birthday present and help her start out strong on the Race! Make her birthday amazing and start out the New Year of 2016 right by making a difference in people’s lives all around the world this year.
Happy Birthday Jenna!!!
My awesome friend, Rae, (below) and I were in the same trio group at training camp where we would split up and share personal connections and applications to what we were learning. We called this group the “triad” because it was such a blessing and we all had so much in common and had experienced lots of similarities on our personal journeys that we were amazed to be in the same group randomly.
That is how God works – there are no coincidences and He uses it all for his glory. This sweet girl, Rae faces challenges head on and so bravely- she does not back down! Her heart is gold and she cares so much for other people, much like this homeless man she helped and that God blessed her through. When we give, God blesses us too! Help Rae to go on the Race today– she is sure to change the world with her caring heart!
Meet Lindsey. She has such a caring and authentic heart. When God called her on this journey, she didn’t know yet which squad she would be joining. We are blessed to now call her one of our own on C-4 squad! Even when it was hard for her to keep moving forward on this huge journey, she kept moving. Even when she didn’t want to leave her loved ones behind, she trusted God. Read about this here!
Her heart for God and for people and her fearless spirit will be a dynamic part of our squad this coming year. Please help send Lindsey on the Race today!
This young man of God, Brandon Coco, is trusting God and stepping out despite what other people might call impossible. He is ready for God to work! He has a heart for God and obeys the calling on his life. Join Brandon aka “Coco” in this amazing journey and just watch what God will do! He needs $700 to go on the Race- please do your part to make this happen!
Jessica is an amazing celebration of God and so filled with His joy, beauty and boldness. She is not afraid to express her joy in God! She is an integral part of the team and loves others with all her heart.
Give a gift of boldness to send Jess today!
Tiffany is a woman who is trusting God in the identity He has given her as His daughter and as a leader, a new role she is stepping into this year as she trusts in Him. She has powerful words to say of our squad: “C Squad is a uniquely designed team by God, just perfectly pieced together by the hearts and lives and roles of each of these women and men. We are an army rising.”
Help send Tiffany today and be a part of what God is doing in and through her!
Join this squad’s army: C4 by joining one of our journeys today! Check out a video of our squad during Squad Wars– C4- (the Green Squad)- we won the dance portion!!!
Even a small gift helps. Give from your heart. Give what you can. Give what you’re led to give. Give a new amount that challenges you- trust God and watch Him work!
Any amount you feel led to give will make a huge difference!
God’s heart is for people. And these are people who will be giving of themselves for nearly a year to reach the lost and to show love in practical ways to a child or woman or man in need.
When you give to other people, you are taking part in Kingdom work and God will bless you through this too!
Whatever you give, God will multiply and use for His kingdom.
Choose one of these lovely ladies (or gentleman’s) blogs and choose who you’d like to donate to today to make a world changing gift!
Take that step of faith and trust that our God is bigger than our fears and bigger than our wallets!
What are you trusting God with in your own journey? What is stopping you from stepping forward in faith today?
“Let me not pray to be sheltered from dangers, but to be fearless in facing them. Let me not beg for the stilling of my pain, but for the heart to conquer it.” ~Tagore
