Honesty: Not my favorite place to be.
All in all: Needed to make sure my heart is in the right place before embarking on an 11 month journey to share the gospel!
My squad arrived to Gainesville, Georgia’s Adventures in Mission campus on January 14th with 3 other squads going on various trips in the weeks to come. My squad, leaders & coaches have been a blessing since the moment we all met. I’m so so excited to be on the field with them, seriously!! We leave from training camp January 29th, straight to Guatemala.
Day to day:
7am WAKE UP
Devos
Breakfast
Worship
Session – teaching on anything from identity to loving one another to worship
Team Time – debriefing the message
Lunch (outside so we spend most of the time hogging the small heaters in every corner of the deck)
Personal Time – lay down on the carpet & laugh over nothing with squad mates
Session – teaching on culture, ministry, safety & other topics to help with cross cultural missions
Team Time – debrief the teaching & learn trip specific info
Dinner – So cold.

Thats a run down folks! We have began preparation for our BIG trip through various scenarios as well as country specific appearances, greetings & meals! Eating with our hands is kinda fun!!
Please pray for us to receive rest throughout our busy days with the ability to focus on the importance of preparation & team building through much anticipation to leave!
Much Love,
