My life right now consists of sitting on a train that’s clacking along the tracks through the countryside of Ukraine.

We’re headed to a city called Uzgorod in Western Ukraine to begin our month of ministry.

We finished month 8 in Romania after a week in the city of Brasov – a stunning city nestled in the mountains of Transylvania.

Towards the end of the week, after days of unity as a squad, we had some team changes.

We had an incredible week of unity in our squad, in a way that I’ve never felt before.

Something had shifted in each of us, and that caused us to be knit closer together in Christ – you could tell that we were all realizing the growth that we had been going through the last 8 months and we were each desiring and learning to walk out in that growth.

Which leads me to the team changes…

The beginning of debrief, the very first night back together as a squad actually, it seemed as if the theme was unity and going deeper with each other, especially with people who we didn’t know as well.

Karen, one of our coaches, straight up said, “later in the week we’ll be having team changes, because we all desire you guys to know each other better”.

So that’s what happened, and I’m so excited for these last 3 months of the Race with my new team.

I know that we’re all Christ-focused completely and we each yearn for more and more growth.

These “last 3 months” aren’t really going to be the last 3 months… The Race may end in 3 months, but it’s just the beginning of the rest of our lives of growing and changing and serving Jesus.

So with that being said, meet my new team, Team Glory to Glory!
