Nothing but Wilderness

I have ten minutes to tell you what I've been up to with team Mongolia.... Go!

We've been backpacking in some brutal terrain for the past 12 days in a valley next to Tairilin Mongolia. The country is beautiful. We got snow on the 4th of July which was a new thing for us as we sat huddled in our tents trying to stay warm for most of the day. We've met with 4 nomadic families and have had some of the greatest experiences of my life spending time and serving them. We've helped shear their sheep, milk their goats at the break of dawn (which comes around 5am here), castrated their sheep, ate their sheep inards, chased down runaway horses, crossed torrential rivers, been sick and sore from hiking and food, but all of this has been so worth it to share this experience with 6 other sold out guys for Christ. We've been able to share the Gospel with people that have never even heard the name of Jesus and experienced some of Mongolia's finest hospitality. Please pray for us as we head back into the valley tomorrow for another 9 days as we plan to visit the Hotung tribe a little closer to the mouth of the valley. Sorry this is short, but hopefully I can give you a better update. Until then God Bless!
