Our Story
Our Meity Adventure began when we sensed that God has a change in our future plans. In seeking the possibilities in full time Christian service, we felt that we needed to sell our home as part of that preparation. The adventure began with the sale of our home – in only two weeks! It occurred to us that since we sold our home, the housing market in our area is horrible, we are waiting on the Lord for His direction for our future, P’s work is such that it doesn’t matter where he lives, and we home school, why not take a motor home trip around the USA? It sounded crazy even to us, but, why not? This has always been a dream of ours that we never thought would be possible until retirement. So, we prayed about it and felt that God was opening the door for us.
While the Meity Adventure began with the sale of our home, the story really began over a year ago when I began consistently praying, that if possible, the Lord would make a way for us to tour the US. We considered various ideas like tent camping, staying with friends and family along the way, possibly just touring the East Coast, renting out our home short term to help with finances, etc., etc. I talked to anyone I could find that did a similar trip. It didn’t seem to make sense practically or financially for us, but I continued to pray for some kind of trip some time in the future. I trusted that since God made me to love travel, if it was His will, He would provide the opportunities as He saw best in His perfect timing.
Well, never in my wildest dreams would I have come up with this plan! Little did I know that selling our home would be the very means of making this trip possible. What began as obedience to God’s calling in our lives, has become this Meity road trip as we wait on God’s continued leading in our lives. We know He has a purpose in this trip as He does in everything. We hope you enjoy the journey with us.
