To my faithful supporters. Happy 2025! This year has already proven to fly by and to hold new adventures. In 2024 I was so grateful to have you with me for the four months in Africa at the beginning of the year and in Spain and Albania at the end of the year. These were both very unexpected trips as I thought the year before would be my last year with the World Race. But God had even better plans for me than I had for myself. This year is already showing to be leading down a different path. I wanted to give you just a quick update of what the Lord has provided and called me to this year.
Gardening! This may seem completely random and out of the blue for some of you. But it is actually an answer to one of my prayers from 2019. Since August of 2019 I have been praying for a garden/farm ministry opportunity. More recently I have been learning more and more the simple lifestyle I want to live is one that works and lives off of the land. I admit I don’t have much hands on experience, but I’ve accumulated a lot of knowledge and now it’s time to try it out and see what I can do. Next week I will be moving to Gainesville, Georgia to start my farm lifestyle and I am so excited. Back in August of 2023 I met a farmer and his family in Gainesville. November of this year, the Lord brought him back to mind so I reached out to him with my farm dream. The Lord has worked out all the living, financial and logistical arrangements to make this possible. Now there are still a lot of unknowns and I will be starting the garden from the ground up literally. This will be a big change of pace for me and a different season than what I’ve been doing the past several years. I’m excited for where the Lord is taking me and this new opportunity to grow and learn things I want to be able to use for the rest of my life. I feel so blessed to be living so close to a lot of my World Race community in Gainesville. This field of work will put me in contact with a new, sweet group of people I can be a blessing to. I have so many ideas and plans that it will be hard for me to start small and not bite off more than I can chew at the beginning.
So that’s my update. I’m going to be a farmer and gardener! If you have any tips or tricks for me please pass them my way! I pray the Lord’s continued blessings upon you and your family and the ministry He has called you to be in this year. Keep me in your prayers as I know this is just the beginning of something bigger the Lord has for me this year.
