This past week, I had the opportunity to serve in Clarkston, GA, with a group of people that had just gotten back from their World Race. Their squad had just returned from Guatemala, Cambodia, South Africa, and Thailand. I will be going to those same countries, except my route also includes Swaziland. It was an amazing opportunity to hear from people who had just experienced the trip I will be going on in a few months. Hearing the stories of what they saw in their race was super powerful. They were all really encouraging and helpful, as they answered all my questions and gave me a ton of advice. This time of serving and building relationships with them got me even more excited than I already was for the Race. I cannot wait to see what all God is going to do this next year, I know He is going to do amazing things.
