Upon arriving at the airport of Grand Cayman after a beautiful Caribbean flight the mood was quickly changed. The immigration officer’s eyebrows rose as he saw the empty space on our immigration form. The space for the address where we would stay in Cayman... Like many other countries on our itinerary, Grand Cayman was again another pioneering country. The immigration officers stood up and called Gerrie (our leader) into a room to question him. As he was being questioned we met a South African husband and wife who helped us to get an address of a place where we could...

In the beginning of the year I had a stirring in my heart to wash the feet of the orphans in Uganda and give them new shoes... This is not just a physical need of the orphans being met, but also a prophetic act to release something new in the spirit to them. Washing the feet is washing away all the hurt, trauma and pollution that the kingdom of darkness had put on them. Then, the clothing them with new shoes, is clothing them with Holy Spirit in their spiritual authority of belonging to Father God's family and the inheritance...

Work Your Way´s journey starts of in Gautemala!

Bonjour à tous ! Me revoilà enfin avec quelques nouvelles de notre service itinérant ! Je vous écris depuis un bus, nous sommes en route pour le Pérou ! Nous voyageons depuis Bogota, la capital colombienne, jusqu'à Chiclayo, un trajet d'environ 50 heures de bus ! Nous quittons la Colombie après 40 jours passé dans le pays, un de nos plus longs séjour ! Mais heureusement nous n'avons pas passé 40 jours à la même place, nous avons visité différentes villes. Nous avons passé un peu de temps à Bogota, puis Cartagena, Santa Marta et Fusagasuga ! Ci-dessous je vais...

What defines a family? Does the term only refer to a collection of people that are united by their similar genes? Is it possible to apply this term to ten people you've known for only four months?

Not much has changed since we left South Africa for the first time on the 5th of March. Coffee is about R3.50 more expensive per 250g and the Stormsrivier toll gate has increased to R40. 26-inch mountain bikes are almost phased out completely, which means by this stage everyone has a 29-inch to brag with. Some people got married, others got engaged and the rest are still single. Some people have also been oversees, some got new jobs or a raise in their salary and a few have property on their name for the first time. But apart from these...

We sing about His love in Sunday School, we get told over and over agian how real it is and ´Jesus loves you´is said so much we have almost stopped listening... But wow! He really really loves me and the way he shows it is overwhelming!  So we were given 6 days to do whatever we felt God was telling us to do. Four of us felt that God wanted us to go to Columbia, yes, Columbia. I was excited and nervous and pleased that God wanted me to go with 3 strong guys as the picture I had in...

Explore Africa has been in Zanzibar for almost 3 weeks now and I've only lately started asking myself: "What is it about Zanzibar?" Why do thousands of tourists and honeymooners come to a place where the heat is almost unbearable, where Islam rules everything and where there is almost never electricity? What is it that keep the planes and ferries coming to this island filled with excited people? Is it the beaches? Is it the spices? Is it the cocktails? Of course we didn't come to Zanzibar for any of those things and neither do most workers for the Lord. ...

How do I begin to describe a journey that has changed my life!!! I planned to write a long testimony on all the things that have been revealed to me and how the Lord had worked in my life thus far - but it would be a very long letter and I may begin to cry... So, a quick note :) The Phillipines moved me in may ways, well Christ did, i loved the intense ministry and I found a love for prophesy and prayer! I, too, got the privelage of leading and being part of worship as well a...

Yesterday our team had the opportunity to go to the village school, where the principles office is about 2 x 2 m and in rain season the teachers and kids have to walk halfway through a river to get there! We got the Grade 4 and 5 kids and taught the kids the concept of “Look at Jesus” (Heb. 12:2) [while looking through their toilet roll lookers!], sang English and Bemba songs and Johannes lead us in some real fun games.
