In order to give everyone a better idea of what I will be doing on this 11 month journey God is sending me on, I copy-and-pasted some information from the World Race website. As we travel into each country, we will be faced with different cultures and ideologies, which will in turn present unique ways to reach out to people and share our faith. We will have the opportunity to work with people from all walks of life and serve them for Christ. While in each country, we will have jobs and tasks and service projects that we will be doing on AIM mission bases or within the communities, but also just living for Christ and serving all the people we come into contact with. This can include anything from feeding orphans, working with victims of sex trafficking, teaching English, or just witnessing to people we meet on the street. The possibilities of what God has in store are absolutely endless!!!
You can always check out the WR website for even more information!

Ireland Ireland boasts a heritage of
Christianity through Catholicism. Yet the lifeless display of faith
reveals that this nation is farther from God than ever. Rampant
alcoholism and suicide rates reveal a desperate need for hope. Through
sports, children’s outreach, street evangelism, pub ministry, and the
relationships that just happen along the way, the World Race
reintrodues a life-giving faith to this beautiful, historic culture

Ukraine Caught between its
past oppression under the USSR communist regime and the desire to be
accepted by Western society, Ukraine is a land of many ups and downs.
Thankfully, there’s hope, light, and life spreading like wildfire
throughout this nation. Is it the kingdom of God coming in power? We
think so.

Romania
The northern regions of Romania are home to the gypsy people. Though
strangers in their homeland and forgotten by society, the gypsies are a
strong and vibrant people who embrace the light of Christ in an
inspirational way. Here you’ll teach English, lead sports camps, live
life with the gypsies, and more.

Israel
The Holy Land attracts Jews, Arabs and Christians alike to be a part of
a location so rich in our combined religious roots. Serve in this new
World Race location while walking the paths trod by Christ himself.

Egypt Egypt is a country
rich in historical significance. The Egyptian people are no less rich
in their cultural goings-on today. A country shaped by the past and
under religious bondage, the people of Egypt are hungry to hear of the
freedom brought through Christ. While pyramids and palaces give the
land a romanticized veneer, under the surface lie hearts in need of
relationship and hope.

Kenya Who hasn’t heard of
Kenya in their lifetime? The Kenyan people are colorful, musical,
artistic and hungry for the love of Christ. The Masai bush, the Nairobi
metropolis, the Kiberra slums…comprise a country diverse yet unified
in history. As a new era dawns in Kenya, so does the Gospel of truth
and faith. By meeting felt needs in the bush and the city, the World
Race produces lasting fruit and lasting ministries to carry on even
after we leave.

Uganda
From the Ugandan islands to the base of Mount Kilimanjaro, the African
people of these nations share a common bond. Through the wild lands,
home to Africa’s “Big Five” animals coexist people, reached and
unreached with the Gospel of Christ. Through evangelism, church
planting and discipleship, we will be a part of a movement to further
the kingdom of God in this incredible region of the world.

Pioneer Africa
Twice during your World
Race experience, your team will take a month to ATL (ask the Lord) for
a new mission field. He may lead you someplace in the middle of a
buzzing city or somewhere that can’t even be found on a map. Either
way, it’s a time of listening to the Lord’s voice and following him
with true abandon. Uncover more of your inheritance…

Thailand

two million people estimated to be stuck inside of prostitution in
Thailand, it has become one of the most popular places for sex tourism.
Change lives in the city and rock worlds in the countryside. Thailand’s
sure to capture your heart.
Cambodia28 years ago, Cambodia experienced one of the most gruesome genocides
known to man where over one third of the country’s population was
slaughtered. Still in recovery from their past, the people of Cambodia
are thirsty for hope.
Pioneer Asia
Ask God where to go and do
what He tells you. It’ll be one of the most adventurous and memorable
months of ministry that you’ll have on the Race. Back to Thailand or
Cambodia, or maybe to Vietnam, China or Malaysia… God could lead you
anywhere to unveil His kingdom. Are you willing to abandon your last
month on the Race to Him?
