An update from the field of our missionaries traveling all over the world:
Currently,
we have one squad in South America, one in Africa, one in Central
America, and one preparing to soon launch overseas. Here’s an update
from each squad.
From our squad in Guatemala:
This month ministry was intentional. We prayed daily, “Lord this day and time is not ours but yours, do what you have with us.”
And
we would go to the park and pray and ask the Lord to direct our steps
and contacts and daily we had to choose to go to the hospital. There
was no one there waiting for us or expecting us at a certain time so we
daily had to choose to go.

From our squad in Swaziland:
As we waited for
the prince [of Swaziland] to arrive… I had the
opportunity to get to know some of the kids.
There were three girls in particular I just fell in love with.
They hung around me and one held tight
gripping my arm.
Later on as
I had my arm around her and was rubbing her back lightly, she looked up at me
with big dark brown eyes and asked, ”
Can
I go home with you?”

From our squad in Bolivia:

The air was so

waiting.

From training camp in Gainesville, GA:
I guess I don’t fit the profile of a
“typical” racer. At 30, I am one of the “older” ones, relatively
speaking.
I have been through college and grad school. I have the
husband, the house, the car, the pets, and about ten years invested in
my career.
So what I’m about to do in giving up almost every aspect of
stability and comfort that I’ve grown accustomed to is in stark
contrast to what most people at my stage of life are doing.
