A Lot of Change and a Few Curveballs

Hey everyone! It’s been a wild month with everything going on. I wanted to send out a quick update with where things are at and how things may look going forward, so you can continue to pray for me and my squad. 

My last update to you all was in mid-February. My squad had just parted ways in Bali and was spread throughout the country of Indonesia. I will be posting a blog in the next week which details our time here in more depth; but for now, I will focus on the last month and what is ahead. 

March brought a lot of change and a few curveballs along with it. My squad arrived in Southeast Asia in the beginning of the month, right as the Coronavirus was beginning to surface more prominently in the US. We were in the area for about a week and a half when we received the call that we needed to return to the capitol immediately, and that we were headed home. 

This was a roller coaster of a week, and so many emotions, questions, and feelings accompanied such a swift transition home. I was disappointed for our squad, as I knew how big of a time this could be, and how greatly God had used it in my life just last year. 

But for any disappointment or any twinge of fear that had snuck in, I also felt at peace, believing and knowing that God would use this time in a mighty way in my life. 

That was in mid March, and now here we are in mid April. There are still many questions and much unknown revolving around this virus, what will come, and when this will all be over. 

For me, I’m back home now. Here at my parents place in good ole northern Indiana. Things have been solid, though I’ll admit there’s been some tougher days as well. 

And as of now, the next steps are a series of unknowns and question marks. We are planning to relaunch with this squad, though we don’t know where or when or for how long. And figuring out what happens after that is even more of a mystery. 

But yet I’m encouraged. Even in the midst of such a unique and different time, God has been so good and so faithful. Later this week I’ll be sharing more about what he has been speaking to me and showing me so I hope you’ll join me for that. 

Thats all I’ve got for now. Like I said, I have a few other things I’ll be posting later this week, so I hope you’ll join me for those. If you’d like to talk or catch up feel, free to contact me. Love you all! Miss you greatly! 

Let me know how I can be praying for you!
