Cried tonight. Couldn’t really stop.

Cried tonight. Couldn’t really stop.

Tonight before the service started, we prayed for the night.
Started to cry. Why? Don’t know.
But here is an attempt at an explication:

Thinking about how much my thoughts turn to I, me, myself ….. on the tour. Often thinking about pain throughout my body or just how much I love sleep or how much I what to tell people about blood:water mission!

This is NOT about me. It’s about people in Kenya. It’s about people we meet in the towns we pass though. It’s about Gods love for both of these groups.

Cried…

Tonight someone talked about how two churches that hosted last years team and this year’s team are now working together through out the year on projects. Just by riding in, eating the food, and sleeping on someone’s floor the past team impacted the community for the positive!

I know this group is making a difference in Kenya and in the communities we stop in.


Cried some more!


Our team functions as one. Controlled by the head that is God!
We do what he wants us to do.

I found it shocking that I so much want to make a difference in the world. For real, it’s just me. I’m not extraordinary. Just a regular person.

I am humbled and inspired by the people that I have met that work or are some how connected with Venture expeditions. You can see they dream God sized dreams and how much they know and believed God will cause these dreams to become reality.

Cried…


I received a Venture jersey tonight. I am humbled that they would let me were one.

Tonight was the first time I realized at how big of a difference we are making. I struggled before to put how riding my little red bike could help people in Africa.

It’s all falling into place.

This church talked about how much of a change they went though after last years team left. They started to care deeply about the African people. They knew they can make a difference.

So I guess we are riding not only for Kenya but also to inspire, encourage, and love people on the way across the country.

I am still crying…
