The Power of Testimony

The Power of Testimony
 Cairo  -  (1 March - 4 March)   The following happend on the 27th of November 979:   Muslims invaded a part of Egypt and wanted to drive out the christian people that lived in that area.  They threatened them and challenged them on what the bible says about mountains being moved by faith (in their eyes it was impossible, and they wanted to mock the christians).   The Imam then said that he will only let the christians stay, if this mountain (referring to Moqattam hill) is lifted up so high that he could see the sun underneath the...

The breaking apart of my heart!!!

On the door step of Stephan’s flat we stood uncertain and somewhat scared of what was coming! It was just like confirmation from God when we got blessed almost immediately after we started our Luke 10! I knew Burma was set on my heart but was it for the Luke 10? That was my question.Our travels were blessed so much that I knew we were on the right way. We were heading to Mae Sot a place where many Burmese refugees found a home or medical attention.  This was the place where we were heading!We came there with no money,...

“Nie Hou” everyone!

So, we arrived in Hong Kong, missing 6 hours of sleep! Tired but very exited! The landscape is very beautiful and everything is very clean! 6 Of our group went to a village nearby to paint some center and the rest stayed in Hong Kong. The public transport is good and we were so surprised when we arrived at Sing Mun Springs. It is nice and well organized.   For you guys at home who know me will not be surprised that I already had my first shopping experience – NOT clothes, but food for breakfast and lunch for the...

86 Million orphans in India, a letter to Jesus from one of them

86 Million orphans in India, a letter to Jesus from one of them
We are currently serving at an orphanage in India. We are building into their lives by teaching. And this is a letter that one of my girls wrote on an assignment I gave them. Age 13 Too My Dearest Friend, Jesus, thank You for giving me this good wonderful day to send you a letter. I am so thankful to you. Jesus, why you are my light? Sometimes I can’t understand why you are my light? Now I understand when I read your Holy Scripture in John 8:12 and I come to know that, You are the light of my...

We often hear and use these words: "The world is a small place." But just how small is it? Small enough for all of us to understand the same language? Definitely. Even though you may need the help of Google here and there! I had the most amazing experience during a bible study gathering. We were seven Afrikaans girls and four Spanish guys. We had a bible study theme to work through and to discuss. One problem: they don't speak much English and we don't speak much Spanish. After a few minutes of trying to translate and to understand what...

silence!!!

we walked up Mount Sanai walking up there was amazing. It took us three hours maybe more but the whole time wlking up there i kept thinking how did Moses ever do it, and what more was there that God wanted him to see or lose  before He came into His precence. you lose the sence of time and really start asking God what you need to ask like : am I on the right path or am I seeking you like I should..? we are bound to each other by choice, but what choice are we bound to God...

Zinder 2

  More on Zinder and Tanout A reply from a friend on a last news letter encouraged me to write again. I am so far behind with my update it will be hard to catch up. Our next visit in the district was to a village called Guiduigir about 100 km east of Zinder. We showed the J_sus film at the market square. A large crowed gathered and the people listen intently, we also had a amplifier and the sound traveled far and clear above the generator noise. People sat in front of their houses and shops far away, the projector...

Stepping off the train, into the back of a police van.

We just arrived in a small village, far from any regular tourist attractions.   While boarding the train we already felt it was different, when the train staff come to see if these foreigners have got onto the right train. We might have appeared a bit lost.   The man behind me (next to Wayne) was very friendly and helpful.    When we stepped onto the platform, I felt like a animal at the circus. Some people stopped and stared, others were cheering, while some others tried in their best english to greet us, "Welcome to Egypt!", "Where you from?"...
