My Route begins in southeast Asia, a beautiful country with jungles and urban areas where people are hungry for hope. The next stop takes me to Ethiopia, in the Horn of Africa. This Route wraps up close to home in Latin America, lands of promise and potential as I will learn firsthand what it means to be the hands and feet of Jesus.
Faced with inconceivable poverty and desperation, Cambodia became a source, transit point, and destination for human trafficking. My journey with start three months at our Adventures in Missions Base located in Siem Reap. Missionaries in Cambodia are passionate about serving their local community through the guesthouse, cafe, and restaurant while partnering with many local ministries in the area. In Ethiopia, we will join in care of orphans, learn how Ethiopians garden and harvest their meals, and serve the homeless and forgotten all while sharing the love of Jesus. Next, we will spend a month in Nicaragua, partnering with Restore Educate Activate Perpetuate (REAP) ministry in Granada. REAP Granada reaches out into the community in multiple ways: through worship, sports, dinners, visiting local hospitals, and more. Lastly in Costa Rica, I will stay two months in the town of Jaco. Working alongside a partner church, I will share the gospel with people on the beach and through acts of kindness.
