I want to tell you a story about a lady dressed in white. She is always there when you need someone to lean on, someone to talk to, someone to take care of you and someone to love you. She never passes by without touching your heart... She is concerned about more than just your health. She wants to know where you've been and where you are going, whats your dreams and goals. What you've been through and what she can do for you. Where have I seen this lady? Where have I experienced her touch? Where is she now?...
Day 1 The first day was our day of faith. Completely surrendering and just doing as God tells us to. We got our first lift just outside town at the entrance of Mike and Adelle (from Crossroads) new home called “MOOIBOS”; they took us all the way to Antigua – 4 hours. Our second lift was a very old pick-up but it was sufficient and it took us all the way to Guatemala city, as we were walking down the street quite hungry I prayed and asked God where we should get food and very clearly on the wall...

Little did I know this was only the beginning of my journey with the One that loves more than I could ever imagine… Since December 2009 my journey began again. I had to completely readjust to everything. My eyes were opened to new things and new adventures awaited just around the corner. In the coming months, I saw clear that there was a great responsibility that came from all these experiences. Enormous life changing things were...
Namaste from India. We've been working for almost a week in Emmanuel childrens home in Kota, India. We are restoring an old hostel/ home that has been neglected. It's taking a lot of sweat (42-48 degree climate) and early mornings ( 5'0 clock) and lots of strength. We LOVE what we are doing here but the biggest situation is just that we would like to treat the kids with a nice meal but don't have the funds to support our idea. We need R10 00o to give this children a nice meal with some chicken and maybe a treat. There...

We were up at six o’clock the first day just before the kids so we could watch DVD’s with...
