The World Race radically changed my life! It opened my eyes to what God is doing around the world and I realized He wants me to be a part of it. He wants you too! DO. IT.
This is just real, real good. As a recent World Race alum, this is such an incredible look at what you can experience if you choose to step out and live an extraordinary life.
I heard the whisper 4 years ago and my life has never been the same. God used the World Race to blow all my paradigms to bits, to ignite dreams & passions that had been snuffed out, to introduce me to the Holy Spirit, to fill me with courage, to surround me with amazing community, and to draw me into an even bigger adventure: the amazing, challenging life as His daughter & disciple. The story only gets crazier and better!
What an incredible experience. It's definitely true that you end up being changed more than the communities you hope to impact. I thought I was heading out on the Race to be a missionary, and instead God became a missionary to me. Life changing.
This is a wonderful representation of the World Race. I am so blessed to have had this opportunity to serve the nations for God's Kingdom. And, while you are blessing others The Lord will bless you in so many new ways. I would recommend this trip to everyone.
Since going on the race this sums up what life was like. It was the hardest, most challenging, best, craziest and Jesus loving year of my life. This trip was epic.
The Lord used the World Race to completely change and impact my life. I love the way this organization is run and completely support and encourage anyone to go on this journey and dive more into who God is and what He has for you.
Great video! I went on the World Race in 2012. I look back on it as the greatest experience I've had in my life. It was incredibly hard, but changed my life forever!!!
Absolutely incredible preview of what this adventure and race IS to those who go. I was on 2nd Gen S Squad and The Lord used this trip to completely transform how I saw myself...and who He says I am! Through the eyes of the special needs children I held in India, to the hands of the lame man I prayed over in Africa...God showed me that I am not my past. I am not the labels society, my peers, or even the lies I've placed into myself. I am redeemed! I am forgiven! I am FREE! Thank you World Race...if you're sitting there feeling the pull...here's your sign. GO!
This trip changed my life more than I ever thought it could in 11 months. My identity has been forever grounded in what it means to be a son of God and a man of Gad. My foundation in my identity of who I am(Son of God, Worthy, Set Free, Washed Clean etc..) is something that was solidified so firmly that it can never be shaken.
The World Race took me, in 11 months from where I should have been in my life and in my relationship with others and my community to where God intended it to be. It was ridiculously challenging, but so worthwhile and it has affected my life forever!
I would not be who I am today without my experience on the world race. I discovered deeper intimacy with god and who I am on Christ in a way that I had never known before.
The World Race was a completely life changing journey for me. I went on the Race in 2012 and experienced God in ways I had never before and grew so much, it was one of the hardest year of my life but also one of the most beautiful!
My year on The Race was by far the best year of my life. It helped me begin seeing through His eyes and really begin to LIVE with my identity rooted in Christ!
The World Race is an amazing, life-changing experience that shatters your expectations and challenges the typical American world view. It's an incredible journey that is very tough, but awesomely rewarding. Do it.
I did the World Race Jan 2009 and it completely molded who I am today and put me on the path to my destiny. The most life altering, challenging, fun experience you will ever do!
Phenomenal video done by the handsome Johnfrank. I returned to the states from the world race 3 weeks ago and he beautifully captured every moment of what this journey holds for each of its Kingdom adventurers.
I did the World Race and it radically changed my life. I grew more spiritually in the first 3 months than my entire life combined (and I grew up in the church). There is a HUGE difference between studying the Bible at home versus walking it out daily on the mission field. The best way to describe my experience is to say that I LIVED out the book of Acts. Miracles do happen!
The World Race was just what I needed to step more into who the Lord called me to be. The ripple effect in my life has been more than I ever imagined and taught me that the risk is always worth it!
I went on The World Race in 2011, and my life has been forever changed. God used the experience to open up my eyes, my ears, and most importantly my heart to His Kingdom in this world. Though I thought I was giving up a year to go, I really was gaining a lifetime of knowing Jesus in a more intimate and powerful way.
Seriously, my life has NEVER been the same since The World Race! I went October 2010 (S-Squad 1st generation) and it was by far one of the most challenging and amazing things to have ever happened in my life!! When you hear for the first time from THREE different people at different times of how you ARE a Son of God...yeah it changes something, especially when Abba whispers, 'Yes, you are my son!' Wow. Breathless!
This has been a life-changing experience for every Racer I know. I have the privilege of walking along side some of them on the journey and that has been a life-changing experience for me too!
I just finished the World Race, and this is an awesome representation of the ups, downs, beauty, and challenges out in the field. If you want to step out in faith, be stretched, live in challenging community, and see God move, I'd highly recommend the Race.
Wow!! I just got back from the Race about three weeks ago and this video is such a great representation of my year. God did so much in my life and in the lives of my squad mates. Awesome awesome video!!
I went on the World Race in January 2011. It was the single most life changing thing I ever decided to do. God grew me into the woman I am today and opened my eyes to fall in love with people and paces I never would have had a chance to otherwise. It's worth the leap of faith to Go!
Awesome video! We had a World Race team come work with us here at YWAM Chiriqui in Panama not long ago, they were one of our favorite teams of the year!
As I was on the Race experiencing first hand what God was doing in the Nations He was also doing something even more personal - awakening my heart and identity. Nothing has ever been the same since. Saying "yes" to the whisper is worth it!
I love the world race! I went out in 2012 and am getting ready to go back out next week as a squad leader! The world race changed my life and introduced me to so many new things. I learned so much about The Lord and who He has created me to be!! I am so excited for this generation to rise up and go out into the nations!!!
the World Race is an exceptional program - an opportunity of a life time, a real place to be the hands and feet of Christ - my husband and I were blessed to be coaches last year for a squad of 56 amazing young people and it changed our lives, just being a part of their journey was such a blessing! if you are thinking about it, praying about it and know God's calling you, then don't wait, the time is now - GO!!!
The World Race has impacted me so much, even though I haven't been on the race. Living in world race culture has taught me about community, unconditional love, and freedom we find in authenticity. I would recommend the race to anyone seeking "more."
If anyone watches this and is contemplating going on the race, this video is a very accurate depiction of what it'll be like. I just got off the World Race Gap Year and it was life changing to say the least. If you feel the call to do something more with your life, to travel the road less travelled, and to see God work in ways impossible to imagine, then don't sleep on an opportunity to do the race. But remember there is no perfect time to do this. It takes sacrifice. Happy dreaming.
Love the World Race! Went on the race in July 2013 and it was one of the best experiences of my life! Be prepared to be uncomfortable, broken, raised up in leadership and make lifelong friends!! I learned how powerful my testimony is not only in the states but throughout the world! God has transformed my life and made me feel confindent in who I am in Christ. God is so good!!
January 2016, I'm coming for you!!! I still have one more year to finish up my degree, otherwise I'd already be signed up for 2015. Can't wait to fill out the application!
I went on the WR July 2013. It was one of the most difficult things I have ever done but sooooooo worth it! I am bold, free, and blazed for the kingdom. Check it out!
The race has forever changed my perspective on life. My direction and goals in life now are not what i would have ever seen for myself before going on the WR but they are Gods plans and they are awesome!
WOW! THIS LOOKS AMAZING! I've traveled the world these last 5 years for adventure and fun but THIS looks like it makes an impact and changes peoples life's!
Watching this video again and again and my heart is pumping so fast for this great work... I love this please want to be part of the team and I did all the signing and I downloaded the visa forms but I need guidance from there. Kelvin Mbetela
In the mean time, you should definitely check out The Passport program, Adventures' (parent program of the World Race) college-aged program. www.adventures.org/trips/?prg=passport
I really wanted to do this. I am a social worker. But deep in my heart I have this still small voice to serve God the Almighty in a way He wants me to be.
I was in YWAM for 16 years, and led or staffed about 100 short term teams, and I can say hands down the World Race teams we had in Panama were the best teams to work with!
If it's possible to condense the last 11 months in to 3 minutes, this is it. You could never describe what God will do in your heart in to words, pictures, etc, but this video shows the situations you'll find yourself in to experience those changes. Do yourself a favor and go. You won't regret one single second of it.
This looks absolutely AMAZING! You had me inspired from the opening scenes of this movie! To people who have done this missions trip before, how did you raise all that money? I'd realllyyy like to know, time to start saving. Thanks! x
This video really shows you what the race can be. It is an incredible missions trip that can absolutely change your life and be the most amazing thing you have ever done. The world race is hard no joke but if you really choose to be all in and follow after Christ I have no doubt that it could be the most life changing experience you have ever encountered!
USA has places that needs your help too, guys. Places like Camden or Irvington New Jersey, Easter Kentucky (between borders in Owsley, in the coal fields of eastern Kentucky) Buffalo NY and last but not least Detroit. Thanks.
Unfortunately, 2016 couldn't come any sooner with the ending of my 4 year enlistment in the Marine Corps. I've heard of the World Race before but, never really understood what it was about until a few weeks ago. I really want to do this. I've heard so many great things. I feel as though this is something God wants me to do
Hello I was wondering if the fine fellow that made this could send or post the video of the bungee jump? I happen to be that guy and have been trying to get a hold of that video for a long time. Thank you much!
Gotta love this crazy good representation of the Race. I just got back 3 weeks ago These last 11 months have left a deep, sweet mark on my life. If this footage stirs you, learn more about the race and let Jesus stir you
I would love to hear more about what your experiences accomplished for the cultures, people, communities where you worked. What changes in other people were the most profound? What faces of those, those who invited you into their countries, remain with you?
This is my first month being home after the World Race and ALL I want to do is show EVERYONE this video and tell them that this mission trip will radically change your life. If God is calling you to it, respond, and sign up now!
If you're watching this and thinking, "Is this real life?," the answer is "Yes!" I just got back from the Race, and if you your life to mean more, there's a world out there waiting for you to show them the love of Jesus. It will be the most incredible, beautiful, tough, change-you-forever year of your life, and it is so worth it! Step out in faith! Say "Here am I, Lord, send me!"
The World Race radically changed my life! It opened my eyes to what God is doing around the world and I realized He wants me to be a part of it. He wants you too! DO. IT.

The story only gets crazier and better!
Word!
Yes! I went on the world race in 2013 and this was one of the best videos to ever capture it! So life changing, hard, but amazing!
What an incredible experience. It's definitely true that you end up being changed more than the communities you hope to impact. I thought I was heading out on the Race to be a missionary, and instead God became a missionary to me. Life changing.
I did the World Race five years ago and still say that it changed my life. It is the most epic, challenging, unforgettable thing I have done.

This is a wonderful representation of the World Race. I am so blessed to have had this opportunity to serve the nations for God's Kingdom. And, while you are blessing others The Lord will bless you in so many new ways. I would recommend this trip to everyone.

Soooo much goodness here!! This is making me miss my amazing WR journey. Every single part was so worth it.
This has been a life-changing experience for every Racer I know. I have the privilege of walking along side some of them on the journey and that has been a life-changing experience for me too!

Thank you so much!

The World Race changed the trajectory of my life... I recommend it to everyone who wants to grow with God and as a person in general.
This is amazing to watch. I kid you not, I found my calling on the World Race!
The most fulfilling and rich season of my life!
Do it and your cool.
If I hadn't already done the race, this would've made me go! Ahhh so good! 😊✌❤🌊🚲🚂🚣✈

Good word!
Did you fundraise to get the money to do it?
I want to do the world race so badly when i graduate from college. seriously praying about this incredible life changing opportunity
The World Race opened my eyes more than anything else to how God is moving around the world. Best way you can spend 11 months.
Love the World Race! Went on the race in July 2013 and it was one of the best experiences of my life! Be prepared to be uncomfortable, broken, raised up in leadership and make lifelong friends!!

Hi Kelvin! Thanks for reaching out. Let us know if you have any questions as you finish up your application!

One of the best things I've done in my life!
I would totally love to do this after college!!! (but its his plan, not mine, right?) Looks like such an amazing life changing experience!
BEST YEAR OF MY LIFE~!

this is fantastic representation of what the Race is!
God used the world race to change my life forever. If you're tired of religion and want to meet the real Jesus, this journey will do just that.
Praise God
How 11 months completely transformed my life and taught me how to live abundant for the kingdom!
Take a look and say yes to the calling!
USA has places that needs your help too, guys. Places like Camden or Irvington New Jersey, Easter Kentucky (between borders in Owsley, in the coal fields of eastern Kentucky) Buffalo NY and last but not least Detroit. Thanks.
Couldn't agree more! That's why we have local short term missions trips! Check out Adventures.org for more info!
they actually have usa trips!!!

Hello I was wondering if the fine fellow that made this could send or post the video of the bungee jump? I happen to be that guy and have been trying to get a hold of that video for a long time. Thank you much!
I need do more, my heart is crying

God, are You cutting onions?
Nope! ::hides knife and cutting board::
The race changed my life.
I would love to hear more about what your experiences accomplished for the cultures, people, communities where you worked. What changes in other people were the most profound? What faces of those, those who invited you into their countries, remain with you?

Don't forget America!
We haven't! That's why we have World Race America! Check it out: www.worldrace.org/routes/january2020-america/
¿Qué tengo qué hacer para participar en ello, o ser una de ustedes?
I want to join in this.. but how??
This is my first month being home after the World Race and ALL I want to do is show EVERYONE this video and tell them that this mission trip will radically change your life. If God is calling you to it, respond, and sign up now!
Im saving up now so that in a few years i can go 😀. I pray that i will be successful in doing this and become closer to God for it.
You could send out support letters... friends and family... 15 people giving $100 a month would be enough.
Great idea ! Ill try that :)
*****
Wow, know anybody who wants to change the world and doesn't have a plan. They need to check this out.
It is amazing
If you're watching this and thinking, "Is this real life?," the answer is "Yes!" I just got back from the Race, and if you your life to mean more, there's a world out there waiting for you to show them the love of Jesus. It will be the most incredible, beautiful, tough, change-you-forever year of your life, and it is so worth it! Step out in faith! Say "Here am I, Lord, send me!"
I would love to do that but i believe God must call before I go other wise will be without power .Glory to God
I wish to become a member of this trip !!
is there a way to be a member ??
its been my dream 😃
