Hey everyone! I’m finally back in Kansas! I finished my training camp for the World Race last Sunday and miss my new friends already. I met the other 54 people planning on going on this journey with me and they are all incredible people. But traveling and working in a large group of 55 would be insane, so they have split us up into small groups of 6 or 7. We got to come up with our own team name and after much deliberation we have settled on one of the Hebrew words for hope, “Tikvah” (pronounced, teek- va). We all share the desire to spread God’s hope to others around the world and as Paul says in Romans 5:5…

“hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.”

So without further ado I would like to introduce you to my team…Tikvah!

The minute they put us together to see how we worked with each other, we all felt an instant click.  This team just feels right.  We are all excited to get to know each other deeply, help each other grow, minister with each other, and have a lot of fun!  Please feel free to find out more about them and send them encouragement by visiting their blog sites (click on their names above or on my links to the left).
