In Croatia we ate chocolate spread.  It was divine.  But that’s not what this blog is about...

I know, it's been a really long time since the last blog in New Zealand!  And now, I'm going to try and summarize the experiences of the 2 months that followed into one blog!    After New Zealand we passed through the USA on our way to Guatemala.  There we had 2 days in Guatemala City and then took a chicken bus to Panajachel.  During this month (until 18 August)  we worked in Panajachel and the surrounding area.  It was a time in which God challenged me on various areas and  further opened my eyes to the reality of the spiritual war we are engaged in. ...

What is a church made out of? If you would build a church were would you start?Would it be with a building plan and a trip to the hardware store? And after you've built it how long will it last? I am in Bosnia I Herzegovina (BiH) right now. Helping with the annual summer camps. It's a lot of fun but a little stretching on the language side. We have just finished our first Kids camp of 6 days and are already busy with the second. And this is watt I believe we are doing. We are building the church...

May I come to know Your heart for the nations and for myself even more and more each new day Father.... Johannesburg - Cairo - Sinai - Dahab - Jerusalem - Nazareth - Lisbon,  Massama. The first few days of my 80 Days journey is finished, the pilgrimage, blessed, I am.  My eyes have seen the works of His hands, my heart has experienced His love. Egypt was an interesting experience, climbing a pyramid.  Beholding His church in a waste dumb, still in awe.  Seeing an Egyptian sunset on the Nile.  Seeing another Egyptian sunset on Mount Sinai, breathtaking!  Feeling...

It's almost been a week, and we're loving Tunisia!!! Some things that have been happening. . . .  .

 Привет! After 3 INTERESTING days on the Train from Moscow, and after sleeping in 197 different positions in a bed that is designed to be exactly 15cm shorter than anyone sleeping in it, we arrived in Krasnoyarsk (Красноярск). What a joy to meet up with a host of Russian friends - with most of whom we had but facebook or email contact for a decade! And even more joy to see that God has been working mightily in this place, and that He is truly busy bringing His church closer to Him. Glory!  A hectic pace, though, from the moment we...

Last week Thursday, the 15 th of April, history was made when GLA sent their first group of men to participate in the epic Mighty Men Conference in Greytown.  In the company of 14 warriors the three teachers were: Major General Johan Oosthuizen, First Lieutenant Paul du Plessis and Lance Corporal Willem Taute. They were accompanied by Private Thomas Schulz and Chaplain Wilbur Wright. The pupils were all foot soldiers from the 32 nd Battalion: Lawden van Niekerk, Johann Linder, Xanavan Dennis, Gareth Collins, Dillon Collins, Ntokozo Lethina, Liwonga Zinto, Johan van der Merwe and Enzio Pelman.   The excitement...

Four noble challengers (one handicapped: deaf and dumb to Portuguese), 13 tasks, 20 hours with one goal… to be the best team… oh wait but already are.

 

 

It was almost midnight and we were having a prayer meeting on the roof of the youth hostel in Senegal. while in deep worship, lead by the Spirit, Abel started to play a Afrikaans song on his guitar.

The more I think about Malaysia, the more I realize what a wonderful country it actually is!
Many a Global team has left their footprints on the culture-rich soil of Malaysia, but for some reason there is little mention about their times here.  Furthermore, I realized that there is still a bit of a lack in solid contacts anywhere in the country.

So, Malaysia isn’t really on any list when it comes to island-nations and we didn’t really intend on spending time here except for our transits through the airport onboard all the cheap Air Asia flights.  In a sense, Kuala Lumpur airport became a second home to our team, without us ever really wandering into the city and beyond.
