We just spoke with the team leaders and they've all arrived safely in Uganda. They are in route to their ministry site via some very long bus rides and will be settling in these next few days and getting some orientation from their host. Expect to see some blogs rolling out in the next few days as they find internet. Thanks for all the prayers for this team! The Passport field support team

Training camp is so different than what I thought it would be. I honestly didn't know what to expect but I had my ideas of what it would be like. I thought training camp would be a bunch of hard core, intense lectures. That there would be a lot of time spent just sitting listening to lectures, and some time with my team away from the other teams. It's not that way! Every moment is a team bonding time. It's been awesome to see the Lord bringing the 9 of us together starting the instant we entered the airport. Everyday, multiple times throughout the day is just a time to be...

Hello Bloggies! Thanks for tuning in 🙂 I am so excited to tell you that tomorow is my LAST DAY IN THE STATES! Woohoo, Uganda, here we come! This weekend has felt like it's taken forever to find it's end, and now that it's finally here, I'm sad to see it go. It has been so much fun getting to know my six lovely teammates and two fantastical leaders, and seeing the way God is moving makes me not want to leave this training camp. Yesterday was probably my favorite day in training camp, and for a few really exciting reasons. Yesterday...

Blog number one! Welcome to all those bloggers out there who have decided to partake in Zach Brown's breathtaking literature! The first few days have been great. Our training camp at the Adventures In Missions Headquarters has been different than I expected, and so much better for it. I envisioned long lectures and powerpoints about the culture and history of Uganda. Instead, it's been an incredibly empowering three days that have awakened my soul in a way I haven't felt in years. We've had a lot of rich community with each other...

On Friday morning, I got up feeling very anxious. I was trembling, pacing, short of breath, not sure what I was doing. In strong need of comfort. During these last three or four days, I felt the voice of Christ giving me words of comfort. All day yesterday I kept hearing, “You are strong,” “You are like a like a fierce, strong, warrior, just waiting to come out.” These words have stuck my heart. I starting to feel strength and power flood through my veins. Lord, I am a warrior and will always fight for you.Â Tomorrow as I leave for the country of Uganda, I will keep...

burdens we carry

My back is hevay with weight. The muscles in my shoulders straining to carry the burden I have chosen to place upon it. Everything I had placed in my luggage had been carefully chosen and the weight was necessary. There were things I had placed in my heart however, that were not selected out of care but out of fear. These things, these burdens were becoming to heavy to bear. Packing for a journey lasting three months has taught me about necessity; what would be critical to my living and what would only hinder me and slow me down. There's a passage in Isaiah that addresses the the...
