Traveling Plans

Well everyone, here is a quick itinerary of the next few day's events:
I will being heading out early tomorrow morning!!! It seems so surreal! I can't believe the time is finally here! I have been praying for this journey for weeks upon weeks, and it is actually here! I can't quite explain all the feelings: excitement, anxiousness, eagerness, and a bit of fear for the unknown. I can't thank each of you enough for your prayer, support and encouragement. I couldn't have had this opportunity without you so thank you!


As you can see to the right, my newest best friend will be with me all summer! I hope to fill my passport up with many different country's stamps! I will begin in Cincinnati, fly to Newark, NJ then to Duesseldorf, Germany and lastly to Krakow, Poland. I should arrive at 9:00am Wednesday morning in Poland. In the airport I will meet up with the rest of the Josiah Venture team including the 73 interns and many country leaders. Some of the interns and leaders will already be in Europe and travel to the airport in Poland to pick us all up. From the airport in Poland we will be split into country oriented teams to embark on the Amazing Race. I will be with the other two interns, Chad and Julia, going to Serbia with me and our country leader, Bojan, from Serbia. I have only met these people via email and Facebook. I look forward to meeting them face to face!

The race is modeled after the television show, the Amazing Race. We will have random challenges and tasks to accomplish while racing from check point to check point until our final destination, Malenovice, Czech Republic for training. This race will last three days! We will arrive at the Malenovice Hotel as our final destination for a week of training. I will be sharing more about the race and training soon!


As 1 Peter 5:6-7 tell us to "Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time, casting all your anxiety upon Him, because He cares for you," I am trying to  give all anxiety to Him. I am thanking Him already for the protection He will provide in travels. Thank you for your prayers as well!

For now, I am off to lots of travelling adventures!
