At the time of me writing this I have one day left before I leave on my 9 month mission trip. If you would've told me I'd say that sentence a year ago I'd think you're crazy and trying to scam me. I honestly don't know how to feel anymore. My entire life I wanted to go on the adventure of a lifetime. I wanted to go out and help people and actually make a real difference. Most of my life I felt like I was just stuck waiting for the thing I was meant to do to show up. I could never get motivated, because I had nothing really to fight for. When God came into my life a little over a year ago all of that changed. A few months after giving my life to him and praying about my purpose I finally got an answer to my burning question. I had something to fight for. 

I say all this as a praise to God. My life has been dramatically altered and it's only the start. With the World Race about to start I am completely dumbfounded. This is everything I ever wanted and it just doesn't feel real. I am so incredibly excited for what God is gonna do this time. 

On September 11 I will fly out to Gainesville Georgia and start the next chapter of my life. I will be spending 8 weeks training for launch. During this time I will grow closer with my squad as we learn together what it really means to spread the word of God to people. Before we leave we will also be doing some local outreaches. After all of that we fly out. Oh ya by the way there is a little bit of a plan change. The first country I will be going to now will be Romania! During training I am going to try to post about every 1 to 2 weeks to keep you guys updated. Thank you all so much for the continued support. It means a lot to me.
