We have two pages on Pinterest that may be helpful to you along the journey, the Parent Ministry Page and the World Race page. To access these pages you have to have a Pinterest account. They are free and easy to sign up for.
The Parent Ministry page is divided into boards for different stages of the race: Pre-launch; Survival Months 1-3; The Journey Months 4-6; PVT (divided by country) Months 7-9, months; Re-entry Months 9-11. We include racer blogs, both Gap Year and 11 in 11, and parent blogs on all these boards. There are packing lists and testimonies, and reading lists for Racers and for parents. There are also resources, including logos to use for fundraising. There is also a board with articles about parenting adult children. If you find articles which speak to you, or that you think other parents will find helpful please send us the link and we will pin it! Here’s the link to the parent page.

The World Race page is another helpful resource. They have many boards as well. From packing lists to inspirational words, and blogs to crazy foods racers eat. They have a cultural awareness board which explains some of the customs in countries they are in, a fundraising board, a ministry board, and a board for what their fun days look like. Here’s the link to the World Race page.

Happy Pinning!!
In addition to pinning…we have WR videos which are infamous for tugging at our hearts as parents.
They show us another world, with which we may not be familiar.
They pull us into the Kingdom Journey of our kids, and sometimes stir us to begin our own. Some parents have a goal to be IN a WR video…and some have made that goal a reality.
Take a look here.
Here’s one more.
There are as many WR videos as their are World Racers.
