Participant Blogs

India...hahaha that is enough said for this blog. For all who were there you know it's hard. If you can get past the dirty, crowded ally ways with a now and then suprising tuk tuk trying to get past while hooting wildly at you, the only citizen by right to actually be in the ally. Then yeah maby it could be a good time, oh if you can also survive the smell of wet cow and human feses with a colony of flies protecting it and dead bodies burning next to the river, then you are a badass. You see...

I am no spoiled brat and I'm use to things not being 5 star, but I could not help realising in what condition the country was. It was bad and seemed poor, but I was exited because this was Nepal ! We rested for a few days at a hostel where our leaders ,Louw and Mynette, spoke to some pastors because we had no set ministry point. Then things got spicy! One morning at the church we stayed at, we were unexpectedly asked to preach so I volunteered because who would want to preach unexpected? Anyway my translater struggled now...

In Penang we joined a YWAM program for drug addicts, prostitutes, homeless people and even lady boys. It was a beutiful place to show God's love, the most hart breaking thing for me is that some of the people didn't believe they could go to heaven. So when I evangelised I usually started with, "Do you want to go to heaven right now ?" People were stunned at this and usually said something like, "I can't." Then they would ask who are you and I would say ," The brother of Jesus Christ and my Father is God." Eyes would...

The Royal Way! God is the King of kings right? The Father we all knows has a Royal Way of providing for His Son's, Galatians 3:26-27. When I first heard of the Royal Way I thought ,"I shouldn't ask or even mention I have no money and expect my Father to give anonymously what ever we needed?" Hahaha CHALLENGE ACCEPTED! We were just walking around in a mall praying for random people when we anonymously received 3500 Baht (R 1500) it was more than enough for 4 people on a Luke 10 journey for 7 days, but it didn't stop...

Indonesia... after Australia I took a fall a literal fall. I was so sick, along with two other, Austin and Mynette's mom. My muscles were so weak I remember one time Austin and I wanted to walk to the Market across the street. Going down the steps was easy coming back up the steps (Elivator was out of order! No jokes) Hell!   We recovered really fast... one day and the next day Calvin and I did Bible study together which was wat we needed (Philippians 3) from then on I was good again until we went to the DG...

So before coming to Australia Louw told us sheep farming is so fun... the first week is awesome something funny and new (You put sheep in a cradle and cut of their tails and ass skin...) then the next week feels like it never wants to end... so it was hard work, but I enjoyed it. Working with sheep isn't as easy as you think. They are stubborn and stupid creatures... no jokes, mirenos are the worst !    But they teach you something about patience  especially when they kick you in the face and balls... remember we are not...

Kosovo was diffrent for me than the rest of the group. Firstly I heard about my flight going to Kosovo instead of China while in South Africa after getting my new passport, thereby going to a place unexpected. There we met two missionary familys whom took us in with more than just open arms. One of the family's daughters thinks I am superman because I am wild and never really got hurt... that she knew of in anyway, but what really got me about Kosovo was that God revived my identity to a comfortable place where He could start working...

So when the team traveled to Turkey and Macedonia I had to go back home because I lost my passport. Now in normal terms this should have been good? I mean food ,chocolates ,tv ,bed and sleep. Well to be honest I went through Hell, my identity was tested every day for 35 days. I tried to pray for people or do ministry, but I had no passion for it so for 35 days I questioned myself, because works without faith is dead... (James 2:14-20) So many other things piled up against me like this one. And I mean MANY,...

Boom! Woke up at 00:00 am 13 April Wednesday, first 9 hour sleep I have had in a long time! So now I have time until I go get my emergency sertificate ... oh, the lady at the embassy WatsApped me to say it is ready. Quess like I am coming home! So after a while I read Living Water, and this constant seeking of hope just after Jesus gave me full hope and preace must stop! I have become soft and complain to fast when I feel like the precence of God is not with me, but little do...

I could not shake the feeling of how awesome Israel was, the whole place is almost build out of limestone that is "alive" and truly I say on to you it makes the place look alive! We worked a bit in a garden where God showed me to bring salvation to men is like plucking out roots of weets and cleaning leaves. After every leave wave which is sin you descover môre roots of weets that is the very start of sin and then you pluck them out with the roots. I thoroughly cleaned a area of 10×4m and it...
