  Cuba is classic and timeless. It is the combination of buildings and cars stuck in time, the classical jazz music in the back ground, the smell of cigars and the open hearts of the people that made my experience there unforgettable and one of kind.   Absolutely everything is beautiful there. The ocean, the buildings, the people and the food. The ocean is blue with palm trees, the works; thus you still feel like you are on an island. The buildings are tall and closely built together with small streets and big windows with wooden frames. Classical European style....

Tobi Basson Last night I was asked : " Yes you believe what you believe, but what about what other people believe and their religion ?" I could not think of anything, but the Spirit of the Lord that is in me, made me say this : " First I did no believe anything, but when I received the Sprit of the Lord, He made me believe. If I was not driven by the Spirit, I would not believe anything ; I would have no religion. So my God is real, for only His Spirit could change me."  

Who knew that this would happen? God has intensely shaped every heart and used this time to cast vision, detox, and challenge every heart's desire that's not in line with His will. God calls a pure and holy bride to rise up and walk in His provision. We have been blessed in so many ways by God who just provides. This week we were helping out at GLA. God provided roughly R24000 in 5 days to help build this school. Our benchmark is R30000 and we know God will provide the rest. When God casts a vision Hen I'll complete...

So with training done we are sent out into the nations....and then we waited...at the airport. Airports are were people come and go. It's a place of excitement, sadness, expectations and for some a new beginning. Like a new promise that has been patiently waiting to be discovered. And this is how we feel. A new adventure on the other side of that boarding gate. A journey that will change our lives forever through the people we will meet. It feels like we only arrived yesterday for training and now we are on our way again. God has spoken words...

Ten days Luke 10 journey - What else as miracles can you expect?   In our first Luke 10 journey in training I was sceptical how God will show up and what he has planned for us. Everything was new for me and I didn't know so much fun will expect me. After this privilege to experience this and hear all the stories from the other groups I was so excited for this faith trip and knew that He will provide and be with us all the time. Praying, listening to God's voice and stepping into his plan were a...

Turkey! Haha no, not the flightless bird, the country of course. It has the most beautiful landscapes, delightful food and rich history. We (as the 10 guys) spent some weeks on a  olive farm in Urla, Turkey, where we would have early mornings milking the sheep, fetching the eggs from the chicken coop and preparing breakfast which would normally be bread that we baked ourselves and some kind of spread like Nutella or a variety of jams. Then we would start the day of by going to the "clay pit" where we would mix clay, sand and hay into water...

While we were in Lima(Peru) we had to drive to Jicamarca with a public bus just about everyday. It's about an hour's drive depending on the days traffic . On our way there Pastor George would tell us to sing a song. We would sing "Open the eyes of my heart, Lord" in English and Spanish. After the song he would point to one of the team members and ask that person to share a testimony. That was quite an interesting experience to stand up in a bus full of people and start sharing. This continued untill we got to...
