We have now hit the 18 day mark until my next World Race deadline! This fact is a little scary in my flesh but absolutely exhilarating in God's Spirit! Woo hoo! He's done SO MUCH the last 3 months to confirm in my heart and the hearts dear to me, my purpose in this 11 month mission around the world! I am, once again, so humbled and grateful to journey for God in this way!
Just for a refresher or for those visiting for the very first time:
My World Race journey = Back packing 11 countries in 11 months!
Ireland, Ukraine, Russia, Kenya, Tanzania, Mozambique, India, Nepal, Cambodia, "Asia," & Malaysia
We will focus our attention to working within the realms of the following four missions:
1. Shelters (Homeless, women's, orphanages, etc)
2. Construction
3. Aids Victims
4. The fight against Human Trafficking (sex-slavery and forced labor)
God will use friends, family, perfect strangers, and myself to raise a total of $15,500 (the total cost of the journey, including room, board, and travel expenses! Everything!)
He has already raised $1,600 AND MOST of my prep costs (Packing gear, immunizations, insurance, my car payment, etc)
Part of my post on my WR Facebook group "Go LO Go" for today:

I will return to my regular Monday Moving Forward post next week but this week, I decided to let you (My WR support team) know exactly where I am in preparation! God is using you everyday and I pray you will continue to let Him do just that.
