January was crowded.

There are over 200 people set to launch into the nations at the start of the new year! While this is thrilling news, it was also a problem. How can teams of 75 people travel, build community, and have a devoted set of leaders without being a burden on many logistical levels? The answer: they can’t. Seventy-five was simply not a number that the World Race staff was comfortable with, so….

They opened up a 5th travel route!

Basically, they said 15 people from each squad need to join the new team to even the numbers down to a manageable size and to be more effective abroad. The kicker is that we had to decide within a number of days, and then jump into a whole new group of volunteers and meet them in just 1 week at training camp. Talk about go big or go home! All this to explain that… 

I now will be traveling to 4 continents in 2014!

Here is my new *tentative* travel itinerary start in January!

Honduras . Guatemala . El Salvador

Albania . Bulgaria

Malawi . Zambia . Mozambique

Thailand . Cambodia . Malaysia

While I am sad to leave my former squad mates and the countries I had been praying over, I know that God said “This is where you need to go. You’re going to fall in love with my people in these places.”

Next stop: TRAINING CAMP in just 2 DAYS!
Prayers needed all around, my friends. I thank you for a moment of your time.
