“A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step” 
Lao Tzu

My first step started when I felt the call to go on the World Race.  I remember stumbling upon the site and truly feeling that this was everything I wanted; the travel, the mission, the passion, the challenge, and the chance to see, hear and feel God working in the world around me.

I have each of you to thank for helping me take the second step.

Yesterday, I started my trek towards Copperhill, Tennessee for training camp.  Although it's a wound-about trail, the Lord blessed me with the opportunity to travel with six other Racers and avoid a major crisis when it came to buying a ticket.  He also blessed me through so many of you who provided me with the critical and immediate financial support I needed to continue on this journey!

Not only does the Lord work in mysterious ways, but he seems to be pretty darn quick about it too! I cannot thank each of you enough as I begin to realize that this opportunity has become a reality, that training is tomorrow and that after less than a week I have already seen God work!

I pray that you will continue to keep up with me as I begin my journey of a thousand miles. I pray that each of you will be blessed in your own journeys and that one day we could sit down and talk about them together.
You are each beautiful and so very loved!

Thank you!
