Last summer, Melanie Stoll (father Wade of Stoll’s Taxidermy; mother Rosetta of The Wild Whisk) began her quest to go on an 11-month trek with The World Race, a missionary organization based in Atlanta.

You may read her blog at melaniestoll.theworldrace.org if you’d like to follow along and look at photos she has posted there. For those who don’t have access to the Internet, below are excerpts of what she has blogged so far. Once the column is caught up on the dated submissions, her blog will be run here as they come in so anyone who is interested can keep up with the young lady’s adventure.
This is Part 3 of an ongoing series chronicling Stoll’s travels.
Nov. 10 – You Can Change a Life
We are in month two of the Race and have settled into a small mission in Dragonist, Romania. It’s All Squad month (aka “an introvert’s nightmare” LOL) which means all 19 squad members, plus our two squad leaders, Drew and Lindsey, and our mentor, Amy, are living together in a dorm style mission house for the month of November. Raul, our host and the pastor of Hope Church, has us in our individual teams, working with missionaries throughout surrounding villages. The priorities for this month are: church planting, children’s ministry, street evangelism, teaching English, and encouraging the local missionaries and Raul’s family.
