Time for some wonderful footage of Mongolia!! I absolutely loved this country. It was full of some of the best meat on the race so far, but also home to the worst drink (fermented horse millk). It had some of the most beautiful views I’ve seen so far, but the worst roads I’ve been on. A very unique and beautiful place overall.
The team I was with had a chance to serve in 2 different locations throughout the month. The first 2 weeks we were in Kharkhorin working with a foster home. The last 2 weeks we were with a pastor in Ulan Bator building churches (physically). It was so cool being able to be apart of 2 completely different but wonderful ministries. I must say though working with Pastor Bogie the last 2 weeks may rank in my top couple weeks on the race. The dude is just on fire. He is building 3 churches and pastor at 2 other churches. He has such a heart for the countryside people. He has been working day and night for the last 2 years building theses churches mainly by himself and I know he has to be physically exhausted. However, one day he said to me (in his broken English) as we were pouring concrete ,”I should be so tired but Jesus makes me so happy that I can work so hard all day!” The man just embodied overflowing with joy and I’m blessed to know him.
The first 2 vids are from the team I was with, the 3rd (by Cori Ward) is from a different team but we worked together a few days and I may a guest appearance at the end! Enjoy!
