The visit was to us humans shrouded in a black cloud of uncertainty, no contact, no host. But part of the picture was a higher power Who knew exactly what was happening, no guessing, no maybe's, no darkness. His plan was ordered and He had unity in mind.
What an interesting time, everything for our travels to Vietnam falling into place the day before we left Phuket. Wow, what an awesome God!
With Vietnam having 8% Christians, we found a homestay with a Vietnamese family who are Christian! The son uses the homestay hostel as a ministry point.
Through him we made contact with a lot of missionaries who attend the international church in Ho Chi Mihn city - possible contacts for Global Challenge expeditions in the future.
We had mostly paint jobs, painting an orphanage as well as the man in whose home we stayed. Although planned ministry opportunities were very few, we could witness to youth in city parks who would approach us to practice their English.
So on the outward it looked to me that we were 'not doing a lot' but Jesus was doing a lot on the inside. We grew closer as a team and also closer to God individually. Praise God!
