Riding in the back of a bumpy car, spitting pop on each other, late night devo sessions, making fun of Texas, “beg”, wearing the Burundi flag in the airport, laughing constantly, “about the size of a coffee can”, being wrecked every day by the pain we saw, experiencing incredible joy, everyone on our team. Feeling alive. Africa.

I’m stressed. YWAM is turning out to be so expensive. Like seriously it’s ridiculous. The visa to Australia alone costs around $550. Is this really your will, God? Please provide for me. Meh.
