This last week was spent in Guatapé, Colombia for our squad debrief. A town two hours outside of Medellin. Debriefs happen on the World Race after most countries as a way for our squad to pause and reflect on the ministry we did and all the ways that we saw God move, before heading out to our next country and beginning a new ministry!
We stayed in a hotel on a lake, but some of us got to stay in these smaller houses they also had on property instead of hotel rooms. It was pretty nice! Except for the fact that most days our water shut off from about 7:30 am to 3 pm.
Every day after breakfast, we had squad worship. The two other worship coordinators and I got to plan this time for every morning and help lead. After that we’d usually have a teaching two from our leadership team. And then our afternoons were filled with one on ones with leadershipand free time. Our free times were filled with swimming, hammocking, water coloring, and playing pool and other games. It was a really sweet week to be able to take a step back, reflect on what God’s done, and spend quality time with the whole squad before we split up for the remainder of the trip.
Up next is our four days of travel to Vietnam. Including a 20 flight from LA to Ho-Chi-Minh!
I’m currently 69% fundraised, with $5,902 to go. Praise God! I still have until February 13th to become fully funded and I have full faith He’ll make a way. I am also still selling my fundraiser tshirt until November 30th, here’s a link. ttps://campaigns.fundthenations.com/shelby-s-world-race-fund
