This is a updated race route
Guatemala
 
The nation of Guatemala is a
region known for its spectacular beauty, volcanic ranges, rich cultural
heritage and Mayan roots. Temple ruins from the past speckle the
landscape and stand as tributes to the historical significance of the
country’s spiritual history. Guatemalans are people of art and
expression; yet, very few see the beauty around them as evidence of a
divine Creator. 
 
Nicaragua
 
The nation of Nicaragua has been
heralded as one of the poorest regions in the Western Hemisphere.
Homelessness, slums, addictions, destitution, poverty and a severe lack
of medical, educational and spiritual resources make Nicaragua a
challenging environment to communicate hope. Yet, God’s love is
reaching the far corners of the country in miraculous ways.

 

Romania
 
The northern regions of Romania are
home to the gypsy people of Romania. Strangers in their homeland, they
are segregated, ostracized and forgotten. Yet, they are a strong, proud
and vibrant people who are beginning to embrace the light of Christ in
a whole new way. Teaching English, leading sports camps, and planting
churches are but a few of the tasks set before us as we enter this area
of the world.

Ukraine

 

The
developing country of the Ukraine stands caught between its past
oppression under the U.S.S.R. communist regime and the desire to be
accepted into the Western world.  The forgotten and marginalized of
this area are quick to be found if one looks close enough. Come be a
part of a revolution, taking back a region from the bondage of Islam
and other folk religions. It’s a new day for the countries of Eastern
Europe!
 

PIONEER EASTERN EUROPE
 
Twice during your World Race, your
team will take a month to “Ask the Lord” for a new mission field.  He
may lead you to a location developing, growing and booming or He may
lead you to a land untouched by the World Race or even Christianity as
a whole.  It will be a time to listen to the voice of the Lord and,
with true abandon, follow Him into the wild blue yonder.

 

Mozambique/Malawi
 
Enter a world of lions, elephants and monkeys, and welcome to
Africa. Potentially the most fruitful of mission fields, northern
Mozambique and Malawi is seeing sweeping revival in the form of mass
conversions, miracles, and churches planted on a daily basis. Teams
will be a part of breaking the hold of fear on the people bound by
witch doctors and animism.
 
Swaziland
 
Swaziland made history by being the first country to reach a 51%
HIV/AIDS infection rate across the general population. Through lack of
education, superstition and other such deceptions, it is speculated
that in 50 years, the country will no longer exist. Though small,
Swaziland has great potential to spread the light of Christ to all of
Africa.
PIONEER AFRICA
 
Twice during your World Race, your team will take a month Ask the
Lord for a new mission field.  He may lead you to a location
developing, growing and booming or He may lead you to a land untouched
by the World Race or even Christianity as a whole.  It will be a time
to listen to the voice of the Lord and, with true abandon, follow Him
into the wild blue yonder.

 

Malaysia
 
Enter a world entrenched in Islam.  A people with the thriving
metropolis of Kuala Lampur, Malaysians still live in ignorance of the
Good News of Jesus Christ. Delve into this culture of works-based
religion, strong self-discipline, and uncanny faith, while delivering
hope and pointing the people to their Redeemer.
 
Indonesia
 
The 17,508 islands that make up the
nation of Indonesia are as diverse as their population. Certain areas
are completely untouched by outside influences; others carry the
exposure, even if only for a moment, of the Gospel story. Be prepared
to explore uncharted territories and forgotten areas to further the
cause of the kingdom of God.

Philippines
 
The Philippines exists as an Asian nation marked by notable
Spanish influences. The Catholic church and the Spanish derivative of
Tagalog (the national language) display a developed and developing
front. Yet, the Filipino people are in need of truth to combat their
folk religions and deceptive fronts, allowing them to understand God’s
greater purposes for their lives. They are a strong, beautiful people
found in a marvel of God’s creation that includes volcanic lakes,
island beaches, beautiful mountains, etc.
