Heading out

It has been 888 days since I’ve left this country!!

Eight hundred and eighty eight days!!

That’s crazy!

If you don’t want to count backwards to that, that was February 21, 2020 - way back when most of the world had only heard rumours of this thing called COVID.

That day I was returning from a trip to Tijuana, Mexico where I had been speaking for a Mission Adventure group with YWAM San Diego/Baja.

Well, in less than 12 hours I will be boarding a plane destined to San Diego and I will return to my beloved Tijuana for the first time in almost two and a half years!

You could say I’m a bit excited!!

What brings me to TJ this time?

Tacos. Of course!

Also… a few other things. Here’s the overview.

  • July 29-Aug 5 — Me, Brennan and Aiden in TJ where I’ll be speaking for a Mission Adventures group.

  • Aug 6-11 — down time. Vacation. TJ tourism. Which I have rarely had the opportunity to do as I’m usually there for a specific, schedule-packed purpose.

  • Aug 11 — Care and Corbyn arrive

  • Aug 13-20 — TJ Team JUD Homes of Hope.

    That trip I’ve been taking about for two years! The House build I raised $13,000 for on my 40th birthday… yeah. It’s happening!!!

BOOOOOM!

We’ve got 4 other families (or parts of families) joining us for a week! It’s gonna be so awesome! I’m so extremely grateful for the people in our lives (also more than a little blown away that 3 years ago I hadn’t even met them yet!!) who are going to join us on this experience. It’s gonna be so great!!

If you want to hear more about that trip, I’ll be posting updates and such on my Instagram and on this temporary blog feed.

I’ll say it now and I’ll say it a whole bunch more…

THANK YOU!!

So many people have given towards this experience over the last 2 years! I’m so grateful for each of you and would not be stepping out tomorrow if it were not for you!! Your support means the world to me!

If you’re the praying type.. I’d love for you to join me in a few things…

  • travel would go well (especially border crossings tomorrow)

  • Jesus would use this time to speak to my heart and Brennan and Aiden’s hearts as we step into serving with this Mission Adventure group

  • Jesus would use this whole experience to radically transform each of us participating

  • We would have eyes to see the things we can learn about ourselves, our world and our Creator

  • Health and such

  • Good attitudes prevailing (did I mention that it’s me, Brennan and Aiden for 2 weeks on our own before the rest of the family arrives!?!)

That it for now. Thanks for joining me and following along in this journey.
