When I was 15, I went on a two-week mission trip to Guatemala through Adventures in Missions. While I was in Guatemala, I learned about the World Race. I thought it sounded amazing, and I felt as though God was hinting that He would call me to go. After that trip, I had a hard time picturing myself in a career that wasn't in ministry and missions. I looked into a couple of different Christian Colleges, but God never confirmed them. On September 1, I was praying, and I heard God clearing say, "The World Race. 9 months. 3rd option." I pulled up the trips online, clicked the world race, 9 months, and choose the 3rd route (out of four). The Activation Route.

I laughed to myself and thought about just how fitting it was. As I read through the description of the trip, a fire rose in my chest. At that moment, I knew I'd be going on this journey. 

I believe 100% that God has the perfect plan for my life, and if I surrender to Him daily, I will see the fulfillment of those plans. These 9 months are going to catapult me into my destiny. The lessons I will learn and the authority I will gain will be incredible. When I return home, I know that God will have done a deep work in me, and I will be equipped to do whatever it is He has planned next. 

I am so excited to share my journey and training with you. You are a part of this. Let's further His Kingdom together.
