Greetings! This site is about a fantastic journey of faith, love, service, and transformation.  In the first week of July 2011, I will depart on the World Race, an 11-month mission trip to 11 countries. It's not all about me, but rather is about the community of people I encounter, who are supporting my journey, and who I serve alongside. It is also about how God is moving in us all.

As you read the site, let me know what you want to hear about, because I want to share what is compelling to you. Please share this site with those who might have interest.

So here's the backstory. At 28 years old, I have struggled over the past several years with what I'm supposed to be doing, and the struggle continues. I'm on a quest to find meaning and purpose in my life. I knew I wanted to go on a mission trip in 2011, and my friend Jeff told me about the World Race. So I'm going: to get closer to God, to serve others, to experience real community. I believe we'll be doing some amazing work on this trip, and I'd love you to support me with your prayers and encouragement. I really want my life to make an impact, and I believe this to be a good step toward that goal.

I love you.
Blake
