Basic updates now that Training Camp is over!
First of all, THANK YOU! Thank you to everyone who donated so far! I literally could not have made it to Training Camp without you. Thank you to everyone who prayed! I felt so covered by your prayers the whole time and was constantly reminded how grateful I am to have such an amazing support system.
Our route changed! These are the countries we are planning on going to now:
Australia, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India, Nepal, Kyrgyzstan,
Kazakhstan, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Spain, Morocco
Why all the changes? Logistics, safety, political situations where borders are closed, etc. Our route, of course, still may change before we leave and even while on the field since AIM wants to make sure we are all safe as we go into the nations.
I got my team, Dauntless! We are unashamed of the gospel (Rom 1:16). My five teammates are named Joel, Joey, Tristan, Kathryn, and Leah. You can see them on the left side of my blog under “Meet My Team.” We will be doing ministry together for the first few months. Please pray for team unity, friendship, and that we will make an impact together!
Dauntless ‘d??ntl?s/
(adjective) -showing fearlessness and determination.
My physical journey is also still underway. I will be re-hiking the fitness test at Launch since I did not pass at TC. The fact that AIM believes in me enough to give me another chance is beyond amazing! I know I am called to the race and am excited to push towards the new goals ahead. I appreciate everyone’s prayers and support though as they were lifting me up during the hike. I have the best squad who came out and cheered me on 🙂 I can do hard things (Phil 4:13) and this will just solidify I am fit enough to endure the race in its entirety.
More updates to come! Thank you for being a part of this journey with me. I do have another fundraising deadline coming up mid-December if you should feel led to partner with me through finances. Simply click Donate above! 🙂
