First of all im sorry this blog post is a bit late. I recently just had surgery so I have been out of the loop for a few days. Which is the first thing I wanted to share with you guys. The surgery went well so thank you for your prayers and support and I am nearly back to my usuall self. I have never had surgery and did not realize that it would effect me as much as it did. I was planning on being out of work just a day or two but I actually had to take 4 days off. Now this not may seem like a huge deal, but with deadlines fast approaching for my world race deadline the pressure was really getting to me. I HATED being excused everyday barely able to move, and just feeling unproductive. It says in Psalm 91:1 1 He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I know I did abide under the shadow of the Almighty these past few days. Which I hope if I find myself in the same situation in the future I will know how to go to the secret place instead of fretting so so much.
I really wanted to dedicate this post to the awesome people that I have in my life right now and publicly thank them. First and foremost my pastor, Pastor Matthew Catricola he helped me a lot since I have moved to serve at Allentown Victory Church last December. He is a great friend and embodies everything a pastor should be in my opinion. Secondly, my family I LOVE YOU Mum, Dad, Grace, and Naomi. I seriously have the most unique and amazing family in the world , we have and are seeing the world together. Most importantly fulfilling Gods call on each one of our lives Thirdly the family I rent my apartment from aka my second family The Vasquez’s! They have blessed me so so so much since moving in with them they really treat me like a member of the family, they are always there for me when I need them the most. Last but defiantly not least my World Race Squad!!

Wesley VickersYou are all AWESOME incredible people and I can not wait until I get to see you all, and spread the love of Christ all around the world. You have all helped me so much, and hopefully I have helped you guys to. Love each and every one of you! Much Love to CHASEGZEEY!

I know God has this thing, its his will for me to GO and I know I will. He is showing up in little ways and huge ways so far, It says in his word speak to the mountain and it shall move so that is what I keep doing and I see the base of it shifting little by little. Im SO EXCITED! GOD IS GOOD
p.s. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you to every person that has given so far towards helping me raise the funds for my mission trip, from the $5 to the $500 donations you have blessed me! and I will carry you in my heart as I go throughout the nations. It is not just me going it is all of us going! The journey has just begun.
