This post is to let you all know that I have officially arrived at the starting point of the World Race!
  Below is a personal message from me, but first I wanted to let you know about an awesome website AIM has setup where you can follow prayer requests as the team travels around the world.
 It is

.
  You can even click “Update Me” to add your email address to a list and receive an email every time a new request or answer is posted.
  Thank you for your support as I journey around the world!

I left Atlanta this morning and have safely arrived in Texas.  A small entourage of fellow world racers greeted us (11 on the same flight) with video cameras and all.  We look like an REI commercial, crowding around the fountain in the middle of the airport.  People keep asking what we are doing, and it is so exciting getting to share it all.  Happy New Year everyone!  I love you all and will see you in a year!:)
