Wow! I can’t believe we’re this far! Here at Alabanza we’ve been welcomed with warm smiles and are so blessed to be at a place where we can prepare for our 80 days journey… It’s funny – even though I’m packed and ready to go, I realize that the next 80 days will be life-changing, adventure packed, emotionally challenging and most of all: a challenge to constantly be tuned in to what God wants us to do and where He wants to take us. Every teaching and session has already been SO valuable in the sense that we have the privilege of hearing truth and amazing stories from God-fearing women, like Annemarie and Allie, who have dedicated their lives to Christ to expand His Kingdom around the globe…using us young people as the instruments. Alabanza is a safe haven where our group can prepare, bond and drink in every piece of advice for this trip. Here, I am already being prepared for things that God wants to show me and this is going to be HUGE…I’m absolutely sure of that. So, here we go – with backpacks tightly packed and a heart that really just wants to be open to His work through us. So until my next blog…ciao!
