Heeeeey guys!!!
Welcome to my blog!! This is the first of many posts, but I just wanted to introduce myself and give you a glimpse into my mind as I get ready to leave in 115 days๐ซข
sooooo what is the World Race gap year you ask? It is a 9 month mission trip, that is also a discipleship program:) It is an opportunity for me to grow in my faith and in unity with believers coming with me, and all around the world!!! We will be teaming up with local churches to spread the word, serve, and help with whatever they needโฅ๏ธ Iโm going to Italy, Nepal, Thailand, Indonesia, and Australia. I am expectant for God to move in amazing and life-changing ways:)
I am SO very excited and also kind of nervous if Iโm being honest lol๐คญ this is a big change to my comfortable life and I wouldnโt be doing this if The Lord didnโt call me to it! He has really given me a passion for traveling and serving people wherever they are at!! I am so immensely blessedโบ๏ธ
What the heck am I up to now??
๐ I just quit my job at Dutch bros after a year and a half!! So crazy and I am going to miss it so much, but Iโm on to my next adventure:)
๐ชฒShopping for all my supplies I still need like clothes, shoes, travel pack, etc.
๐ฆ Spending as much intentional time with people as I can before I leave!!
๐ Focusing on building my relationship with the Lord because I am going to be depending FULLY on him during these 9 months!
๐ฆ Finishing fundraising! I am 80% funded (whaaaat?!) and I am trying to be fully raised before I leave so I can focus on different things during the trip:)
So life is preeety jam packed right now but I wouldnโt want it any other way!! This is such a fulfilling time of my life and it has been a gift to have the amount of support Iโve gotten from friends and even strangers๐ฅน
Thank you all for your love and prayers!! Jesus loves every single one of you and I hope that by following along my journey, you will feel encouraged in your walk with Christโฅ๏ธ
Love,
Mj Rogers
