I saw a young child of arround 6 years in the isle of a busy street in Agra, India she wore a white dress but the dress was soo dirty at places that it looked black, totally contaminated with dirt. There was no one close to her, to protect her from: cutting remarks, glares and advances.She was so exposed to the world and the evil people in it. Nothing seperating her from this... There is an ever present evil as the streets in India really aren't safe!It struck me so much as every child needs and deserves love as well...

You need faith for this... "A" for away but also "A" for AMAZING! As northbound we had a challenging project to complete within 14days. As soon as we got to the orphanage in India, our ministry started... Our projects include children's ministry and transform the physical appearance of the orphanage by scraping, sanding and painting the walls.  We prayed for R25 000 to complete the project and bless the children. God miraculously provided R14 900! He also led a Hindi business man to give us R1100 discount on materials we needed, as well as sandpaper for free when he heard...

Yes.... I live to tell the story! Believe it or not =) Being the person that I have been for the past four years, it was quite something to adapt to a whole new way of living. From being a forth year student at the University of Pretoria, living in a residence, having a strict class schedule, studying for tests and being a modern day student to adapting to a life with 36 other students in something I can call a 'very-close-to-my-personal-space' living, was something I had to get used to - and fast! Through the process of getting to...

Welcome:) I feel that I need to give you a bit of background infomation so that you can understand the journey I'm on, and why I'm experiencing it the way I am. At the end of last year on the 7th of November my life changed for ever. My sister,Amber, 17 years old, went into a coma as a result of measels which then futher developed into menengitis and enkephalitis. Unknown to us at the time, the ICU staff didn't give...

My Journey began in 2013 as soon as I heard I’m accepted for Global. The biggest Challenge at that time was to trust God to provide finances for me to go on Global in 2014. I had this knowledge in me that God will provide for my family (I have seen it through the years growing up), but for the first time I have to trust Him to provide for ME. I can surely tell you that God is, Yehovah Jirah: The God that provides.  By beginning of January this year I already had more than half of my funds...

A faith journey began last year 21 August when I woke up with the idea in my head to do a Global challenge year journey, I thought it was my own thoughts but as God led me that morning to read in Angus Bucan daily message in a book I never used I got some conformation threw the heading scripture that said Go out and make disciples (Matt 28:19) little did I know that God will stretch my faith so much, He is always faithful and His timing is perfect. Now about 6 months later I am of to 13...
