  In a world of busy schedules, pressures, expectations, challenges, trials....what does it mean to truly walk in contentment...how does one find that...? A few weeks ago on our LUKE 10 journey, I was walking along a farm road to where we were staying. A cool spring breeze was in the air and the last rays of sunlight on my face- I could feel an amazing sense of peace and fullness within me. There such an awareness within me of the presence of my Creator, that I couldn´t help but smile. This is what it is, i thought to myself,...

1. Get a "Local" to pull  out a tree for you. 2. Make sure you have some spectators. 3. smoke them out(like that is possible)     4.

  How amazing is our God!!! Last night as I was just worshipping God on the Guitar and just proclaiming how great He is, I realised again how important it is to not just read God's word but also to praise and worship Him daily. The more we worship Him the greater revelation we'll have of Him- the greater our revelation of Him the more He can work in and through us for His Glory!    

 So sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you... No unfortunately we didn't get to set foot on Mount Everest... But we did get to see a little bit of it from a distance. The PIKN team is doing so well! India has been a wonderful growing expedience for each of us. We've learnt what it is to endure physically. An average of 47 Degrees C and running to the loo like it's the latest fashion is NO JOKE. (Esp. if you add a 12hour train trip to that)! BUT, it drew us closer together? Through...

  While staying at Khota children's Home we spent our mornings restoring/painting one of their old buildings. I had the privilege of painting Mark 10:14 on one of the walls. It begins where Jesus says: 'LET THE LITTLE CHILDREN COME TO ME. DO NOT HINDER THEM!For the Kingdon of heaven belongs to those who are like these.' It was one of those days where I was tired and I had a whole group of Kids around me wanting to help me/ watching me/ just messing around, while I was trying to get my job done. I had to ask them a...

Finally the Pink team Blogs again :P  The last couple of weeks has been really incredible, we have experienced so much of God's faithfullness and provision starting with winning the "thailand/Malaysia" Challenge right through to being priviledged to have built awesome friendships in every place we have been. We are currently on a backpackers journey through different small villages somewhere in the middle of China.  We as a team have decided to do it as a "Luke 10 type journey" where we trust God for food, accomodation, travel and the right contacts in every place.  Already we can testify.... We...

     It's not that bad- really- you just need a keen sence of adventure. China has been AMAZING. I was able to get a camera when we left Malaysia - so I thought I'd put up a photo blog:)   Leaving Malaysia we made lots lo friends on the train- though the train trips can ger very tiring- and the trains are usually jam-packed! Our team won the last challange and were able to go eat KFC- and we met a brother- it was really cool.     In China we had to catch a 32 hour train to another province the next morning. The hotels were...

What a wonderful God we serve! Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 I’ve had it on my heart for a very long time to do a mission trip with some teens. It was AMAZING!!! First of all, God really blessed us with a great leadership team. There were three of us (and we could each function in the area of our strengths), leading a team of 10 teens. We saw many lives touched and miracles: The one eve we were showing the Jesus film and had decided to feed the people afterwords. But more people showed up...
