The past 3 weeks in the UK was wonderful. God truly blessed me with the opportunity to visit friends, housemates and family to share about God's awesome work during the past year. Every day I had fallen deeper and deeper in love with London ones again ,as I was walking over Tower Bridge and enjoying a spectacular view of The London Eye from Waterloo bridge. But above all, I had fallen deeper and deeper in love with God. I was again stunned at God's work, while sharing about the things God had done in my life and what He is still doing....

Without any team or personal money we trusted God to provide for everything from food, water, accommodation etc. God was more than faithful and looking back I stand in awe of Gods work. He protected us the whole way, provided safe places to sleep, food to eat or a ride...
As I close my eyes I see Deborah wearing a flower dress with ribbons in her hair. She is skipping up and down the street while laughing out loud. I know this is possible, for our God is a God of miracles. Deborah is a beautiful six year old girl. Paralyzed from her hips down she has been living in a wheelchair all her life. She has to wear diapers and is 100% dependent on her mother. She's never been able to run around, play with friends, ride a bicycle or climb a tree and these are only a few...
The 3 weeks we had in New Zealand was amazing. Spending time with my host-parents from last year and the youth from the Afrikaans church was a privilege. I could see the hunger they have for the Lord and how much they really need Him. It was encouraging for me to share with them what the Lord has done in my life and how faithful he has been. By sharing with them, these experiences became a part of my life and not just another story. I underestimated the power our testimonies have and the responsibility towards others to tell them about the work of God. For me it might...
We have the privelege of visiting the beautiful country of New Zealand for 2 weeks.It is very cold here but we are not complaining after the heat from India.The rain and wind reminds me of the typical Cape winters we use to have back in South Africa. We spend the first week at Snells Beach and had a time of debrief and rest.I can assure you, we enjoyed that a lot. We are staying with Host-parents during our time in Auckland and it is wonderful to visit my family from last year again. During the past week we helped...
As we were driving through a small town in the Himalaya Mountains I stared out the window at some beautiful Indian women dressed in their traditional saris. They were walking graciously through the street, chatting and buying local products. Still cautious enough to pull a small boy away from a moving vehicle. The striking color and patterns of their Saris drew my attention, but there was something else... something that fascinated me, or rather disturbed me. While I was staring at them I realized they had no emotion or expressions on their faces. No smile, no frown and no reaction. The...

Changes and challenges of India As our train slowly leaves Kota station my heart fills with overwhelmed emotions. Leaving everyone behind that I've come to know the past 2 weeks was too much to bear. I never thought it was possible to grow so close to people in such a short time. Most of all, I've come to love them with my whole heart. A love that comes from God alone. This amazing people changed my life forever. People laying downs their lives for others, people facing persecution everyday of their lives, people taking care of the orphans and loving...
Thailand - 26 May 2008
We spent the last 3 weeks in Thailand and what a blessed time we had. Our team was in Phuket for 5 days and formed part of an intersession ministry. We joined the red team and spent 2 weeks with Pastor Wasan near Pang Nha, north of Phuket. We build houses for less-privileged people, had a kids-program...
