Hi Everyone, I truly have mixed emotions when having to say, that the Work Your Way journey of 2011 has drawn to an end. On the one side it is sad that the journey has to come to an end, but it brings me absolute joy thinking back on how God has used my team and I across many nations being led by the Holy Spirit like we are called to in Acts 1:8 which says "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea...

The final stretch of the 2011 Work Your Way journey took place in Egypt and Israel. Personally Cairo had a tendency to remind me a bit of India. Dry, hot, a lot of poverty, dirty, people trying to constantly sell something to you, bad odors floating around in the atmosphere every here and there etc etc. But still through all that there was a love and compassion for the people which is hard to explain. Especially when thinking that in the very same areas we were walking 25 Coptic Christians were killed just days after we left. I can't help...

Work Your Way spent the month of October in New Zealand, seeking to enhance Gods Kingdom more every day. We spent our time there in Auckland, living with amazing guest parents who poured out awesome blessing on us. At first I couldn't help but think that a first world country like New Zealand won't need as much need for evangelism as say, India would, but once again I was amazed at the large amount of need for Jesus' love within the country. We worked in unity with different churches including the ACK(Afrikaanse Christelike Kerk), Doxa Deo and with the Royal Mercy Global Evangelistic...

During the month of May, Work Your Way spent their time ministering, serving and sharing in Malaysia and Thailand. From serving at Pastor Sylvanus in Malaysia, to doing our Luke 10 journeys(Read Luke 10 to see what this journey is all about) all over Thailand to serving with an old Global Challenger, Tobie, in Phuket, Work Your Way has truly had a blessed time and experienced something new of God in so many ways!  Watch the video as we share just a touch of what God revealed to us about himself: [video:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blBJ88eg2vE 600x450]

It's time to experience the heart capturing India for yourself. Work Your Way went to India for about a month to serve at Immanuel Orphanage on the outskirts of Delhi. Our whole team experienced something new about God in this country. One of these things would definitely be to find the love and compassion He has for children all over the world. If this video gets your heart pumping a bit faster for the children of the nations, then maybe God is calling you for Children Ministries? Even though we went to teach them, I can say with out a...

Work Your Way has truly had a blessed time in Australia so far. We spent most our time at Mountain Trails Adventure Camp, where we helped out with Kids Camps by leading different activities such as: Archery Horse riding Abseiling Caving and dirt biking! We also did some other work projects with probably our biggest being building a Round Yard for the horses. That included some cutting really big trees down with a chainsaw... And then debarking them, putting posts into the ground and then using some threaded rod to set all the railings up (as seen below). We also...

Fear contradicts Love! During our time here in Thailand, a car rolled off the road and ended up smashed at the side of the road. Welman and I were about forty meters behind that car when all this took place. We stopped and miraculously all 4 people inside the car came out alive.  It then just struck me. In a blink of an eye four people’s lives could have ended just there and then, without warning. And it is sad for me to say, but the harsh reality of all of this is that all four of those people were...

  Following Jesus? I am currently in India together with the rest of the work Your way team. Apart from enjoying the absolute innocent love I’m receiving from the children at the orphanage and working hard on a water reservoir we are building for the orphanage and just experiencing the incredible India in so many different ways. From going to watch IPL to experiencing the scorching Indian sun, getting eaten alive by mosquitoes at night, seeing the Taj Mahal, shaking my head sideways like the Indians do, spending time with Indians who have a hunger for Christ and also with...
