the unknown road

the-unknown-road
Sitting on a night at the final end of a training period for new students of Global Challenge Expeditions, I find myself excited for them and their year. The adventures to be had, the people to be met, the views to be seen and the roads to be walked/jumped/ran on or where they would just stand - to take it all in.   Little more than 4 years ago, I was the new pilgrim embarking on the fresh path of the unknown, with the only constant assurance being that that which lies ahead was already planned by a Higher hand....

Off to the Mountains we go

The mountains lay slow moving in the mist, floating shapes in a murcy distance. Fading into the sky with no clear foothold they cast a shadow on the quicker moving sands that flow from their feet. The green plantations, brought about by human irrigation from nearby rivers , is an overture to the contrasting dry landscape behind it. It moves past rapidly as the bus finaly nears our destination:  Chiclayo.

Getting fit for the race!

Getting fit for the race!
 It's been an incredible 6 weeks of traing in J-bay, Transkei, Cape Town and all over the Eastern Cape. I've met amazing young people and we've become true brothers and sisters over this few past weeks, learning more about our purpose, ourselves and God. My heart is being transformed by the passion and freshness of Holy Spirit working inside. I've realised that by allowing transformation and welcoming change, your vision gets clearer and your perspective gets stretched. Which has been such a wonderful process for me in this time of training. My eyes have been opened to see little miracles...

Excuse me, can I help you?

Excuse me, can I help you?
How can you try to explain Turkey in words? Everything that has happened here was just one amazing journey. I can literally see God's hand in every place that we've been to. From our first day in Istanbul God has started the journey with me to show me what true humility is and make me realize again that this year is not about me.    It was such a nice experience to get to know the turkish people and their culture. The people in Turkey are probably the most giving group of people I've ever met. Every time you would...

Short update

Our time in Varanasi was amazing! We really experienced God's grace and faithfulness. We met a woman from South Africa and helped at her friend's ministry for the children from the railway station. We also had a boatride on the Gangajesh river, which was beautiful and upsetting at the same time - just to see how lost these people are, bathing themselves in extremely filthy water because they think it is holy! I couldn't help but feel powerless: it would be impossible for us to reach all of these people in the short time that we are there (there are...

Life on the Island

Life on the Island
LIFE ON THE ISLAND As on many islands you expect to get a lot of palm trees layered with coconuts, white sandy beaches and a friendly local greeting you in a vibrant tongue telling you to enjoy your stay on the island. Fiji is much the same. It consists of 333 islands with two main "bigger" islands . The people are extremely warm and relational orientated and your watch is only used to tell you when it's time for your next meal. According to history, Fijians came over from Africa with "big canoes" in the 1800's. Not hard to believe....

The different student life...

Although the month has not yet passed, I would still like to share about the things that have happened so far. We spent most of the month in Brazil and more specifically, Rio de Janeiro.   Rio de Janeiro.  • We split in 3 groups and did a ´Luke 10´ journey.

(Luke 10: 1-11) 1After this the Lord appointed seventy-two others and sent them two by two ahead of him to every town and place where...
