Hello everyone! It has been a while, but so many things have happened since my last blog. It has been a crazy whirlwind of emotion, but has all been so good!! I wanted to take this blog and give you all an update on what is going on in my life, both in the World Race atmosphere and in my personal life. 

The biggest change in my personal life has been huge!! I GRADUATED COLLEGE WITH A BACHELOR'S DEGREE!!!! My life as a college student was amazing and filled with so many good times. Graduating college has been truly one of the biggest and toughest challenges so far in my life. When I was a freshman in college, I decided to make my four year degree into a two year one. That meant more classes, less breaks, and my main focus being school. This has its challenges, but the Lord truly blessed me and I was able to finish and it has been very emotional for me. The reason for it being so emotional for me is because of the struggles I endured before college and during it. In the end, I am relieved that God granted me the ability to finish and has given me the opportunity to go on the World Race. Right now, I am looking for a job before I leave for the World Race, so please, prayers that the Lord leads me in the right place before heading out! 

As far as the World Race, things have changed a bit! Instead of 11 different countries, and going to Central America, South America, and Southeast Asia, our routes have changed a bit. Due to Covid still being a factor and our administration wanting everyone on the team and those we are partnering with to be safe, we will being going to 6 countries in the Central America, Levant Region, Eastern Europe, and Southeast Asia regions. When I was asked if I still wanted to take part in the World Race, I felt the Lord telling me that this was apart of His plan. No matter where we were going, who our partners were, our questions about vaccines, the Lord knew that this would happen. Now, I have a new group of squad members and it has been a crazy change of events, but I am grateful that this is something that we are allowed to do in the midst of Covid. 

I am excited for this next step in my life both in my personal life with a new job, no more school, and also with the World Race! Thank you all for joining along in my journey!!
