I knew that I'd probably realize more about my trip there when I got home, and I guess in some ways thats true, but in others, not really. I know, I'm not making sense, but bare with me anyways.
Most of you know that when I was in Cambodia, I got word that I was accepted onto the Silver Ring Thing Tour Team. Well, you may not all know that I started this past week.
On Monday, all of the tour team assembled(inside joke) at the office and we kind of had an "icebreaker" day. We got to know eachother a bit over a table at Pittsburgh's own, Primanti's. For the rest of the week, we started out early at the office then caravaned over to our warehouse where we put together the entire show until the wee hours of the morning. Now, a week later, our entire show is put together, we have bonded like family, and we're leaving in the morning for Louisiana.
I can't even begin to tell you how blessed I've been through this job... I actually feel wrong calling it that, because really, I'm just having the time of my life. Even the nights that we were at the warehouse until 4, almost 5, AM, we were laughing and carrying on. I know that God has blessed this team with a unity and love that will enable us to travel this country and carry out our message. I've never been so content. Really, you know you're doing the right thing when you can't wait to wake up and do it again.
One of last tour team members told us that because of SRT, she's traveled to 43 of the 50 states. I'm looking forward to that, because my family hasn't traveled too much. The furthest south I've been was Virginia, and north was a five minute trip to New Jersey.(long story) I'm so excited to see this beautiful country!
