Lydia quits her job

Lydia announced in October that she had gotten a new job at a local jewelry store — the same jewelry store that she was at when she helped Max pick out a pinky promise ring for her sister Moriah.

The job worked out extremely well, and Lydia posted multiple times about how much she enjoyed it. However, participating in the mission trip meant she had to quit.

She put in her notice at roughly the same time as her public announcement about the mission trip. She shared a selfie on Instagram and revealed that she had three weeks left at the job.

Given Lydia’s wording, it’s assumed that she does not plan to return to the same job when the mission trip is over.

What is The Jesus Journey?

The mission trip that Lydia Plath will be participating in is called The Jesus Journey and is sponsored by The Jesus Generation ministry. The group created a GoFundMe campaign in hopes of raising enough money to buy a “reliable van” for the 2023 trip. The description for the fundraising campaign provides a clear explanation of the mission:

The Jesus Journey is a 2 month missions trip for young adults with the goal of transforming the life of the individual by growing in receiving and releasing the love of Jesus through intimacy with God, learning their identity as a son / daughter, and overflowing that love in community with other believers & to the lost and broken.

On this trip we will travel the USA together to partner with local churches, ministries and fellow believers to see communities impacted.

On our last trip – thousands of lives were reached with the love of Jesus. We were able to become the hands and feet of Jesus across 15 states and saw so many lives saved from depression, brokenness, suicide, addiction, hopeless and fear. This trip was/ is a dream come true for me and so many and I believe it will be for years and years to come.

Lydia reveals that the 2023 trip will consist of 7-9 people between the ages of 18 and 32. According to recent posts by the The Jesus Journey on Instagram, the mission trip will run from May 28 through July 23.

I don’t believe they have released an itinerary of locations yet, but here is the calendar from last year as an example:

Congratulations to Lydia! She certainly seems thrilled to be going on the trip! Who knows? Maybe TLC will film some of her mission trip experience for the next season of Welcome To Plathville?
