I'm Going Home


So here's a condensed run down of my Race so FAR -
Costa Rica - Taught English, picked up some Spanish, Fed the Homeless, Soaked the City with Prayer, Let God stir hearts through my testimony, lived in tents, Learned how to love and depend on my team as I endured the dreadful dengue fever. Did a lot of landscaping, ministered to surfers and party scene in Jaco, Costa Rica.






Nicaragua - Developed a heart for worship, and to come to the Lord through song, and hiking mountains. Built Adobe houses, broke rocks, healed the sick (literally watched them get up and walk out of their beds)  lived in tent city with 50+ people, loved on babies, learned how to "let go" of my worries, doubts, and fears of my future. 









Honduras - We learned the true meaning of discipleship, and saw it action with Tony and his boys at Zion's Gate Ministries- witnessed the foundation of the first girls home going up on their property with Cassie former WR'er. Drank the best coffee I've ever had at the coolest coffee shop ever, Worked in, and shared the love of Jesus in Los Penos - the most dangerous area in Honduras. Slept on a sidewalk at a hospital and witnessed the Lord work through kindness and protection in having me befriend a gang member whom I ended up snuggling with to keep warm for the night. I witnessed someone who was dead come back to life. Taught at Loyalty school, and worked with a ministry that saved girls from abuse and rape.











Thailand - Here the Lord called me a freedom fighter. Our mission was simple. Love those who were at high risk of being abducted into the sex slave industry, and love them fiercely.  I fell in love with all the little ones we got to spend time with. Struggled with anger towards the men that would hurt these precious hearts. Lit Lanterns of hope, rode elephants, visited friends in hospital, experienced true freedom in my own life. Dreams awakened this month for life after the race ( more to come on that later). 






Malaysia - TEAM CHANGE! Month of building deep relationships with my team, and amazing contacts. Truly went into a month of intense spiritual warfare, and starting a process of walking out of an orphaned spirit and into being a son. FOUND SWEET TEA!







Cambodia - Started to really walk into confidence as a son. By leading my heart well, I began leading my team well. I fell in love with the children that I had the opportunity to teach English to everyday. I was moved by the Cambodian people and their hearts of love without reserve, and their beautiful smiles. If there is one thing I will always remember about Cambodia.. it's the smiles..





Rwanda - ???
Uganda - ???
Kenya - ???
Nepal - ???
India - ???
I don't know what is next. All I know is that I'm not finished with the race. God didn't bring me here to only go half way and go home. But if I don't get $2,428 for my last deadline, it's over. I'm done. I watched God bring in over $13,000 so far. I know that he can do this. So I'm asking you to pray, pray for my finances, pray that God will toss you some extra cash this week to send my way. Thank you for your faithfulness. You guys have done and given so much to me this year. It has not gone unnoticed. I feel your prayers every day. It's incredible and I wouldn't have made it this far without you.
